    FS: OG HellBent, Billy Goat, Raide Pack, Cheap Dukes, Squallywood

    Some rare collectors items, and some cheap stuff.
    I get it. For the pricey items, I might end up going to Ebay.

    The cycle of generosity. This time, my sale is less about hooking you guys up. Any gains from this sale basically trick my brain into taking losses elsewhere, to hook up my dirtbag non-maggot friend whose current gear is dangerously half-broken for freeride comps (plus he throws down hard every day on his sketchy beat-up gear).

    Buyer pays shipping from Crested Butte 81225, any shipping option you want (PirateShip might be cheapest).

    A few photos in this post. Many more photos in the 2nd post below.

    -


    1) K2 HellBent 189cm 2010 - rare excellent condition - SOLD flat for $450 shipped to a Newshooler in NH

    (More photos in 2nd post below.)

    These skis fucking GLOW IN THE DARK. Way, way faster than red.
    The O.G. version (150-122-141). 3rd and final year at this width.
    Very low mileage, clean, excellent condition. Buyer will be STOKED.
    - I skied these ~3 powder days at Whistler (NOT at rocky Crested Butte).
    - Clean bases, original factory structure is still prominent. I can't find any base scuffs to photograph.
    - The topsheet whites are WHITE---no yellowing with age or UV light.
    - Some very, very minor topsheet chipping---not even worth a photo.
    - I am 2nd owner, but these look skied only 3-5 days total.
    Remember that these 189's actually measure 194.5cm and weigh 2695g, for destroying powder with unlimited playfulness.
    The inspiration for the Heritage Lab HB122 skis.
    Drilled 1.5x for Salomon 916s (i.e. STH1). So, drilled 1x for toes, 2x for heels.
    - Open holes for 316mm BSL at -1.0cm from true center.
    - Plugged heel holes were for a 336mm BSL at -2.0cm from true center (using the one set of toe holes).
    Why selling? Soft flex is super fun, but in the deepest powder, my heavy 220-lb body can flex this ski a bit more deeply than I prefer.
    SOLD flat for $450 shipped to a Newshooler in NH

    2) ON3P Billy Goat 191cm 2014 - SOLD flat for $180 to a maggot in CO

    (More photos in 2nd post below.)

    Some maggots consider this 2014 version to be the very best Billy Goat for untracked powder.
    145-118-128, radius 29.2m, measures 191.3cm.
    Weighs 2325g (standard construction, not the Touring Build).
    RES (Reverse Elliptical Sidecut) in the front half of the ski makes it so surfy.
    I bought these used from SupreChicken in the PNW.
    Great functional condition overall:
    - I skied these at Whistler and Palisades (NOT at rocky Crested Butte).
    - Buyer will be STOKED on condition of bases, edges, and sidewalls.
    - Buyer will be meh about a big topsheet chip on the tail (see photo).
    - However, drilled 2.5x, so low price for high performance condition.
    Drilled 2x for toes, 3x for heels.
    - Open holes for Pivots for 315mm BSL at +0cm on the line.
    - Plugged holes for Dynafit Beast 16 for 294mm BSL.
    - Extra Pivot heel holes (plugged) were for a 307mm BSL at +0.2cm (so +2mm).
    Why selling? I've owned 3 versions of the Billy Goat. I prefer to keep my heavier 2012 version for tracked-up resort chop and crud.
    SOLD flat for $180 to a maggot in CO


    3) Raide LF 30L pack, 2024-25 sample/prototype, Size ??? - SOLD for $275 to a maggot in CO

    (More photos in 2nd post below.)

    I don't know much about this product, but Raide is cutting-edge design/tech.
    Final product info at https://raideresearch.com/products/l...Bin-tXUwVEC4ww
    Tag displays: "Sample not for sale", and handwritten info including "24-25', "March 27, 2024", "19-inch Roll Top", "5th Proto", "Size: 32.1cm x 70.5cm x 15.5cm" (which doesn't help me figure out Sm/Med/Large).
    Buyer can ask me to check/measure details, and I can compare head-to-head with a production LF 40L (but that 40L pack is not for sale, just borrowing from a friend to help me figure out the details here).
    I never used it. A friend owed me, so he paid me with this pack before he moved away.
    If Buyer is not fully satisfied upon delivery, I will make it right.
    - Size? Not sure. It's a sample/proto, so it is likely for mainstream people, which according to Raide website would be Medium" for 5' 9" - 6' 2".
    - Size? Removable aluminum frame piece measures 20 inches tall, and 13 inches wide (at the top).
    - 30L, with extendable rolltop to 38L
    - My phone (6.5" x 3") fits in both hip pad pockets, which according to the website, suggests this pack has this year's latest upgrades.
    - See Raide website for more details.
    - Little hints of dust/dirt suggest this pack was set down on the ground at least once, but the dirt came right off with a damp cloth (photos below).
    SOLD for $275 to a maggot in CO


    4) Cheap Marker Duke EPF 16 Large (pretty sure I have any size brake you want)

    Toe pieces have slop, are wiggly.
    Other than that, fully functional.
    Large claims to fit 305-365mm, but I'm gonna say it fits only 310-365mm.
    Boots: Fits Alpine DIN soles, Alpine Touring (ISO 9523), Walk to Ride (WTR), GripWalk.
    DIN = 6-16.
    Adjustable height for toe AFD (i.e. Sole ID or whatever) helps overcome the wiggly toe pieces.
    Previous owner was 6' 4" 195 lbs, says they're 100% trustworthy for him skiing hard at DIN=9.
    I have not used these yet. I'm gonna ski 1 hour on it inbounds tomorrow, just to enjoy some classic Q-Lab 109 skis before I unmount.
    Still, with wiggly toe pieces, don't use this as your primary setup for dropping 15 footers every day. (Maggots deserve much better bindings for that.)

    $30 + shipping

    5) Squallywood, a Guide to Squaw Valleys Most Exposed Lines, 2nd Edition by Robb Gaffney MD

    Pricey collector's item, so I should just list it on eBay, but I will give you all first chance at it.

    $475 + shipping

    I'd hop in line on the Raide if North passes.... living to your south in Silverton so maybe can avoid shipping if we can connect.

    VI my PMs aren't working at the moment, but based on the photos it looks like it has all of the updated features I care about. I'm in Steamboat this weekend but will be back home in CB next wk. Should be easy to meet up no need to ship.

    Nice. You're first in line for the pack, and a meetup will be easy.

    As the best skier on the (undisclosed TBD) mountain I'd like to generously offer you $37 for the Squallywood book.
