    Testing water: 189 Kahuna (the blue ones)

    Not mine, selling for a friend. In good shape.

    I haven't seen them, but can get more info.

    Drilled twice I believe, not sure what type of binders.

    $250 plus shipping is what he wants for them (local pick up in CO)

    PM me with interest and I can relay messages or get you in touch.
    I've got more suits than Liberace, but less than Eastvailhucker.

    His two pairs are sufficient.

    He needs - toons and FFFs

    For those of you interested, I'm working on getting info about how many sets of holes and what they were drilled for, so stay tuned...

    If i thought i could part with the bros, i'd be all over that. On the other hand, i do have a pair of volkl 724pros, 184 that for some reason are a few cms longer than my 185 pocket rocket, only used around 7-10 times this season that i could part with for kahunas, mabye some money to make it even.

    I got a PM awhile back from a kid that desperately wanted Kahunas....so they (a market) are definitely out there.

    naw I don't think I want/need any more. Yeah I fukt my pair up, bad, but apparently they've been given the voodoo witchdoctor healing by my local tech. I'll check 'em when I get back home.

    I figured I'd give a shot at getting the bro's, the other ski don't interest me that much

    Just for that, I am going to make you do a run with me down Pinball or Brain Damage next season. No "I dunno, the coverage doesn't look that great, and the snow's wind-scoured..."

    your 'woods better be up to the task!!! I'm calling you out!

    Hey I was willing to go down Brain damage last time we were up on the king. After you dropped down pinball side no one else wanted to and honestly we found some deep pow.

    I could probably be talked into pinball - although its a little frightening looking. Just for the record the face you skied wasnt pinball proper

    and yeah...I was there too. Coverage was good....but wasn't powder.

    we opted to go ski powder, which I might say was pretty fun.

    You even said later - steep stuff is what gets you off. Thats cool.

    Making big ass turns down silver basin, while being yelled at, floating on creamy snow was, IMO, more fun than skiing pinball in mediocre snow.
