 Poster: A snowHead
|
This is one of Atomic's tele/backcountry ski range. Apparently replaced the older TM:18
Considering a pair as a new tele set up as they are available dirt cheap in the US. Any views/experience etc? Not sure even if its a model widely sold in Europe (maybe around Cham).

fatbob, I've just checked the 07/08 Atomic dealer catalogue (Europe) & the neither the Kongor nor the TM:18 are listed. I'd suggest enquiring on Epicski.

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

spyderjon, he's talking about the 05 blue salamander pattern or the 06 orange flamer 84-waist jobbie. telemarktips.com is prolly the better place to go; I think the 88mm waist Kailas is the stealth bargain unless fatbob is looking for a tele version of the old M:EX.

What constitutes "dirt cheap" fatbob? (I feel it's time to learn to tele and if it's cheaper to buy skis than rent then...)

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

PhillipStanton, under $200 for the '05s (and some '06s if you look carefully).
spyderjon do you have anything on the Rt80, Rt86?

JT,
Yep been in OKAY a couple of times - not needed to rent kit though more the price and roughly decent dimensions were attractive. Maybe I should bite the bullet & buy some proper 98mm+ skis for tele. (or if I listen to parlor 130mm  )

fatbob, you want some High Society FR's in 187cm. 136-104-126 & 23.7m radius. Their flex would be perfect for you. Mates rates apply
