WTB - New 04/05 Volkl Gotama
Can anyone recommend an online retailer that actually stocks the 04/05 Gotama in a 190cm.
What prices am I going to be looking at - I know the volkl website says it is around US$725 - but what is the price on the street?
Any other tips or hints.

Nobody has them right now. They're supposed to hit the country in the next week or so. At least that's the word straight from Volkl. I called their warranty department last week. They said the shipment was leaving for the US in a week or two and then it would take a few days to send them out to the shops.

I don't know if they have them in stock yet.... Price is a little higher than what the street price will be once they do hit the market.

Done and done, just bought them through the Australian distributor - they will be here within a week.
Just in time for the weekend at the snow.

I was talking to skiershop.com back when i wanted a pair and they said when they get them in they will be about 15% off before the season.

Just a quick question in relation to length.
I am 6ft 1 (185cm) and 190lb (87kg).
Is the 190cm Gotama going to be too big?
The other choice is 183 cm - but I understand the Gotama already skis shorter than it is anyway.Avoid employing unlucky people - throw half of the pile of resume's in the bin without reading them.

Get the 190's, I'm on the 183's and sometimes they feel like snowlerblades.
They definitely ski short , I guess partly because of the big turned up tail.
All depends on what you're looking for.

Quiver now reads; Gotama, V-Pro and 724 EXPI have mastered all major sporting activities to a high degree of mediocrity.

They aren't not the G4's they are 724 EXP's in a 177cm.
They are 74mm in the waist and are an all mountain carver and I use them a whole lot out here.
The V-Pro's in 180 cm (83mm waist) are for mucking around in the pipe, park and powder days.
I have just added the Gotama 190 cm ( waist 105mm) for my trip to Niseko in January and for sheer stupidity factor here in Oz.Avoid employing unlucky people - throw half of the pile of resume's in the bin without reading them.

The Big Stix 106 is my everyday ski here at Baker... At least until the midseason release of the 101mm 191cm stick with a twintip swallowtail... ssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhh........
OOOOOOOHHHH, I'm the Juggernaut, bitch!

Twin-tip Swallow, and with only a 101 waist? I dont get it... Whats the point? And if you tried to ski fakie they would create so much drag...
If things seem in control, Your just not going fast enough.
