Found These Retros at a Thrift Store

[Uncle-A]

Looks like M51 demos on the white The Ski...No want, you are welcome to them. The Tyrolias are on the Dynamics.

I was talking about the VR 17's but the reply quote did not work. I must have done something wrong when typing. Just trying to keep the retro look of the VR 17's and not interested in "The Ski" they are all yours Phil.

must be a later model VR17. The "real" ones had yellow lettering IIRC..

Not uncommon for a manufacturer to ride on the success of a particular model and turn it onto a series, thanks to @Dave Petersen here is an image from the All Things Dynamic thread....

In the photo I see a pair of Rossi's deep in the back of the group. They look like a Rossi ROC and looking at the size they may be a Jr. ski. Did you get a good look at those?

Joal probably already called them to have The Ski Shadow shipped to him.

I wouldn't be surpised..he would snake me in a Hart beat.

Absolutely not!!! There must be some honor among collectors and thieves (although I may have done it once or twice in the past).

Well, Mack is also a hunter of such things. I don't care which of you gets them. I really would like to see better photos of them though. A real unicorn the likes of which I have never heard of. I just made up the name "Shadow" because they are black and white with such subtle graphics.

Here are the bases on The Skis. They have what I think is sage laminated into them. Really cool!

 

[Idahosnow]

both skis have a black/white change on each ski.

Found these today. There was a full display box of them.

Found a couple more items in a second hand sport store, but they were decoration and not for sale. The white skis were unmounted. Seemed really short.

^^^Owner's personal stash. Those are The Ski Puppets, their ballet ski.

Unmounted Puppets are $$$$. They look like later ones with the extra pinstripe borders.

Looks like like he made his own Superhots. He has riveted on a Superhot cuff or some other material onto a Superlight. Still looks like the same tongue.

Saw this sweet 90s vibe HH jacket, new with tags for $22. Come to Durham and it's yours!

I grabbed a pair of pants that fits me well.. $12 also new with tags but those are just ARcTix or whatever that knock off brand is..

These 80mm 1080s are STILL my daily driver at the little hill place. Probably 15 days on them in the past 5 years since I scored them for... $9.99 with the Pivots. The price is still sharpie'd on the tip.

Ha, maybe those were mine. I gave mine to a friend who moved to North Carolina. Mine were great skis, really fun.
