Mail for help.Help!!

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 :-)

FS: All my Gear due to knee injury :-(

Unfortunately, due to an accident (not ski related) and subsequent knee surgery, I will not be able to continue with any significant Piste, any Off-Piste or Powder skiing that I have been developing my skills and equipment for.

This I have the following available for sale:
Black Crows - Nocta 185.5cm, 2024, Griffon bindings.
Used 2 days in deep powder.

Rossignol - Soul 7 HD 180cm 2013 / 14 , Marker bindings.
Used many time over the years when conditions have allowed.

Rossignol - Soul 7 HD 1720cm 2013 / 14 , Salomon Bindings (I think)
Bought 2nd hand a few years ago for friends to use if enough fresh snow.
Used a hand full of times myself.

Dynastar 2 /3 pair ski bag with roller wheels.
"195 cm" size bag and I can pack 3 pairs of wide (100+ mm) skis, and poles etc in it.

Various Leki & Black Crow poles, 50" / 120 cm length with piste & powder baskets.

Vario ABS Airbag System
Base backpack airbag system and zip on cover (+- 8 litres storage volume)
2 x trigger handles.
2 x argon canister (1 carbon light weight & 1 Std Alu.)

25 liter zip-on storage bag, with separate sections for avalanche gear, water and dry clothing, ski & poles straps etc.

40 liter zip-on storage bag, with separate sections for avalanche gear, water and dry clothing, ski & pole straps etc.


Snow Shoes:
1 x large "hyperzoid" model for soft / deep snow. Bindings big enough for snowboard boots.
1 x medium std pair for more hard pack / icy conditions. Bindings suited for hiking boots.

Orthovox Avalanche transmitter.
Old style single read-out of arrows and distance.
All working well when used for search refresher training at Xmas, Jan & March ski trips.

All items are currently located in Pembrokeshire, Wales.
Occasionally, could get items back to the Luton area for collection when family visits me.

Let me know if you are interested in any of these items, I can then provide more details / photos etc and we can discuss a price and delivery etc.

Cheers,
Andy_McG

Hi Andy,

Sorry to hear of your unfortunate predicament.

Any idea of prices you'd accept?

E.g. what year is the vario airbag & how much with the 2 luggage storage bags say?

Hello Horgand,
Thanks, just an awkward landing, resulting in big changes.

For the Vario ABS system, as a package, I would say £350 excl any postage cost.

I would say the system is from early to mid 201_'s.
I bought it 2nd hand in late 2020 and I did a test firing to ensure all works as expected.
(Nothing quite like the smell of a discharge explosive in your living room Eh oh! )

The chap that I bought it from did ski touring, but was reducing kit due to a growing family.
I bought it as an item of equipment that 'would be very useful when my abilities & conditions warranted' , thus it hasn't been used in many years.

The base, bags, zips, straps etc are all very good condition.
Btw, the bags are 15 L & 40 L. My apologies.

The two triggers & canisters are newer, the one set replaced after my test firing in 2021. (€30 for trigger & canister replacement from a main dealer in Chamonix)

Let me know what other details you require.
Or PM me your email and I can send you some photo's.

Cheers,
Abdy

@Andy_McG, Hi Andy. I might be wrong, but the only one i can find online is 210 not 195.

Not a major issue for me, but do you have any photo's and how much are you looking for?

Cheers

Hi All,
I still have a lot of good gear available.
The only issue is that I am currently working in Ireland, so will not be able to post or deliver any items until late December, when I get back to my storage unit in Pembrokeshire.

Cheers,
