    Bros, Ninja's & Boots

    ALL ITEMS SOLD

    I've been buying more gear than I'll be using this winter so some of it has to go. I'll post pics up later tonight. PM me or ask any questions in the thread:

    1. 188 Stiff Bro Model w/out bindings SOLD
    - first gen.w/ brown sidewall
    - mint shape - probably 25 days or so on them
    - drilled once at the line for P14s (317bsl); once 1cm behind line (which is the money spot) for 916s (313bsl)
    - no coreshots, edges are clean and topsheets are minty
    - from what I've read, these flex a bit softer than current stiff

    2. Ninja 916s SOLD
    - bought these from Marsha a month or so ago
    - basically brand new; used maybe a couple of times - couple of surface scratches on them and thats it
    - thought I'd have a use for them but turns out I don't and they gotta go
    - I paid $195 shipped for them a month ago; $185 seems more than fair

    3. Salomon X-Wave 'Pro Model' Boots w/ intuition liners SOLD
    - bought from MarshalO near end of last year
    - size 27.5 (9.5) (not one size fits all )
    - rigged up with vibram soles via conundrum
    - intuition liner is basially new; heated once and worn once after heating. Had been worn once before heating as well.
    - pretty sure MO put a bunch of days on the shells but they are still in great shape with lots of life remaining, all buckles function perfectly and the boots are still nice and stiff
    - lots of life left in these as I only wore them once ; MO may be able to comment on them some more if he sees the thread
    - selling for what I paid; again eating the shipping (UPS must love me)


    Game On!

    Depending how much use they've had, I might be interested in the boots. I'd also be willing to pick up with cash possibly.

    I put the vibrams on those. There is a thread about it somewhere for pics.

    They were in good shape when they left me.

    It doesnt even look like the boots have been walked in - probably in the same shape they were when you last saw them! I wore them one day last spring but they're now subject to my fall purge. Nice job on the Vibram BTW

    Going to be in the Victoria area sometime soon?? I'll get some pics up in an hour or so but like conundrum says - they're in good shape - just not quite right for me

    I think those are my old dalbello liners MO took off my hands. I skied one day on them, too high volume for my really tight shell fit. They stiffen things up a bit and are $$$ mint.

    I think you're right. Between the liners from you and the vibram soles Condundrum slapped on them, these booties have been steezed out by mags. Great boot - Salomon last just isn't for me so they gotta go

    if some one could chime in with the flex rating of those boots and the BSL

    I just might make an offer on them.

    Looks like the original thread that MO posted was deleted and I thought it had some flex info in it. From what I remember, they flexed somewhere around 100. That said, I'm no expert and I'm sure someone else could chime in with better info. As far as BSL, basically the same as some 313s I have kicking around the house.
