Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Sale withdrawn: ski touring bundle comprising skis, bindings, skins, ski poles and ski bag

£200 for the bundle

Everything has been in climate-controlled storage, unused, for the past 8 years, so all in very good nick.

    * Rossignol S7 freeride skis with 2013 topsheets, 178cm (these were the last of the legendary S7 skis). Condition is very good, used for 4 seasons. Edges have only ever been hand-tuned and the bases hand-waxed. These were, by far, my absolute favourite skis on and off-piste in all conditions except crud (read more here https://www.evo.com/outlet/skis/rossignol-s7-womens)
    * Dynafit Beast 14 AT bindings mounted for 274mm boots. Condition is very good, used for 3 seasons (note: excludes the power inserts for your boots, which you can buy from Dynafit and other retailers for about £18 )
    * Black Diamond Glidelite climbing skins, cut to fit the Rossignol S7 skis, 178cm. Condition excellent, used only a couple of times
    * Scott metal ski poles. The tip on one pole is a little bent.
    * Line padded ski bag, big enough for the Rossi skis (I always carried two pairs of skis, with bindings, in this bag). In very good condition, no rips or tears

Collection from North West London.
Payment: either cash or PayPal on collection.

A percentage of successful sale will be donated to keep the snowHeads hamsters running.

Edited to clarify that it is the tip of one pole that is bent, not the top.

@Zero_G, well I never did, a genuine blast from the past!

Clearly your skiing days are at an official end. Hope you are well and everything is good.

The other reason for my post is to remind you to remove the power bar from your Ski boots to go to whoever buys this (bargainacious) package for the beast bindings.

Apologies if you had already remembered this.

Hi both, more like a gasp from the past Skullie

Yes, my skiing days are definitely over. Tried to kid myself for far too many years but can deny it no longer. I console myself with the fact that I got do a lot of skiing in the 8 years I had.

Thanks for the reminder! I'm minded to leave the power inserts attached to the boots, better to do that than remove them, leaving the boots compromised. I'll update the original post accordingly.

@Zero_G, eight years doesn't sound long, but if you feel it's the right decision, then it is. Has any other sport taken its place?

@Zero_G,
If you don't remove the bars from the boots and include in the sale of the skis the beast bindings will rip out of the new purchaser's boots without the bar. So the Beast bindings will not work.

You should have the original fitting from the Mercury boots to fit back on after the Beast fitting is removed. Then there is just the cosmetic blemish on the boots of 2 tiny screw holes.

Ideally the boots and skis go to the same home!

It's not very long and I would ski until the grave if I could. But it's not possible for reasons. C'est la vie!

I'm sorry too. And I have memories of searching for avalanche beacons under London autumn leaves! That was a long time ago...Sending you very best wishes, anyway.
