There was the macho thing with "the longer your skis then the better the skier you were". Including the "Look how good a skier I am" when standing with your skis in a queue for the bubble either resting them on your boot like the chap on the far right of the picture or holding them off the ground like the guys in the back row. |
I used to do the bubble thing!
I'm also in the back row of that photo!

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Had a pair of Salomon 9000 Equipe 2S (Power-8 ) 210cms. Salomon produced iconic "monocoque" skis at a time when laminate skis were mass produced. The 9000 S2's skied exceptionally smoothly, held a perfect medium to long GS turn, very progressive fairly stiff flex |
Now that brings back memories - I too had these exact skis in the mid eighties, then went down to much shorter (2m) Fischer RC4's!

I got talked into buying a pair of 210 Kastles by an Austrian ski instructor- talked my skiing right up he did!! Great for schussing, couldn’t turn em. Got them off his hands I guess.

If you look closely the guy on the right has lifted his toes off the ground so as to make his skis appear even longer. |
He hasn't changed at all, saw him during the summer and was still as much of a joker.
