Curt, fantastic photos. You know, I learned to ski in Aspen (long before the glitz of today) many years ago. Yep, back in the days of long planks - no 223's or 215's, but 205's for Slalom skiing. You really had to know how to use a ski to get on and off an edge to carve them. Hell, I used to crash through the bumps with those friggin' things. I did get to learn to manuever those puppies around pretty darn good though. Shoot, I think I bought some of the last generation, long slaloms - Salomon's hot slalom ski in 203's I believe. And they aren't that old!

Andrew, I will take those off your hands if you are tired of looking at them. Not quite what I was looking for, but they will do. I'll be in touch. Would really love a pair or two of what Strato listed above.
