Hi there,

Selling my first pair of skis. These are the skis I learned on and they're great for that application. Work well as a resort / backcountry setup (where you're mostly learning to ski in the resort) or doing some fitness skinning. These skis are 168 cm long, 80 mm in the waist (fairly narrow), 114 mm in the nose and 104 mm in the tail. They are mounted with Fritschi Eagle Diamir rail bindings, which work in the backcountry and will stand up to resort usage. Because of the narrow waist, these aren't the skis you want for deep powder days, but for packed snow and learning on they're great. 

I bought these in Salt Lake City in 2018, skied two days in Wisconsin, and then maybe around 10 days in Colorado. I've been going skiing once a week. I'm selling these skis because I've switched to a dedicated touring ski and a dedicated resort ski.

These come with a pair of Black Diamond Glidelite skins ($180 by themselves). I've used the skins for AIARE 1 and the companion rescue course and one other mini tour. Bases and edges are in great shape.


These could work for someone in the 5'4" to 5'8" range. You can check online guides to see if they might work for you.

No charge for shipping if you can pick them up in the front range (I'm in Broomfield), or you can pay shipping through something like shipskis.com and I can drop them off for you. I think it's still pretty cheap to mail skis with them.

See you out there!

Also have a pair of Crispi ski boots US 8.5 Mondo Point 26.5 (I wear a TC Pro size 42 and size 9-9.5 in running shoes) that will fit the frame bindings:

Hi Steve,

These are Black Diamond Stigmas, 168cm long. I think they're the 2017 model but I'm actually not seeing anything online about them. I'm really just looking for a new home for these skis so I'm entertaining all offers.
