Condo
lodging in Whistler
for the
Olympics or before
A 3 bedroom penthouse condo at Whistler Creekside
Sundance Resort by the Olympics for rent from
February 5 - 15. It sleeps 8. Rent is $500 a night.
The Olympics
start on Feb. 12.
I am opening the rooms to $50 a person per night,
any night. No requirements on number of night, but
if less than 6, should pay cleaning fee.
It's an opportunity of a life time to see the

tickets. Or actually go to one of the competitions.

Practically
new 2010 Volkl Kiku
skis
Click on the image to enlarge
170 cm long
Tip-Waist-Tail Dimensions: 137-106-122 mm
Used only 3-4 times, mounted with recommended Marker
Griffon bindings with wide brake (set for size 7
boot).
Manufacturer's description:
The Kiku
has been re-designed for 2010 with a new shape of
137-106-122mm. We have added our ELP - Elongated Low
Profile technology so that it is rockered - our
first rockered women's ski. ELP gives it incredible
manueverability in the deep stuff, combined with
sold groomed-snow performance. See the website at:
http://www.volkl.com/ski/skifinder/skis/attiva-kiku.php.
Wide 106mm waist gives the Kiku maximum flotation
on epic powder days
These skis were made for the deepest of the deep,
the fluffiest of the fluff, and the softest of the
soft, but they also transition well onto groomed
runs
Dense wood underfoot provides excellent screw
retention; soft poplar wood in the remainder of the
ski creates snappy responsiveness
Women-specific wood core also uses lightweight and
structurally sound balsa wood, creating a core
that's lighter and more flexible than comparable
unisex skis
Carbon layer in the bottom of the ski stabilizes
ride and enhances durability
Tough Box construction sheathes the multilayer
wood core in composite and fiberglass, promoting
resilience and snap
Stiff flex zone in front adds stability, and
medium flex underfoot offers a smooth transition to
the soft tail that aids in turning on groomers and
maneuvering in pow
Elongated, low-profile (ELP) reverse camber
creates a gradual rise in the ski from the boot toe
toward the tip and from the heel toward the tail
ELP is high enough to float in deep powder, yet it
also creates consistent contact for effective
turning when the ski is put on edge
Low tip shape smooths out your ride on the groomed
runs and resists diving in soft snow
Vertical sidewalls provide excellent grip,
stability and sensitivity
Linda's comment:
These are
awesome high end all mountain skis for a woman. I am
selling because I should have bought these skis in a
162 length instead of 170. Retail price on the skis
and bindings is $1175; for sale for only $599.
SOLD FEB. 11, 2010

Almost-new Dynastar Big Trouble
skis
Click on the image to enlarge
Tip-Waist-Tail Dimensions: 124-92-114
Ski Radius is 21 m @ 176 cm long
Technical Features: Wood core, Vertical sidewalls,
Sandwich titanal, Spring Blade, and high flared tip
and tail for staying above the powder and switch
ride-ability in powder.
The ski is practically new; no scratches on top or
bottom, edges are mint!
I purchased the brand-new skis in September of 2009,
and had Ski Chalet mounted with used (but in
excellent condition, din goes up to 14) Marker Speed
point bindings in November. It has been ridden
exactly two powder days at Meadows in December.
Why am I selling? I got it for my teenage boy for
powder days, but he says its little too heavy for
spinning and doing tricks
so I got another pair for
him Atomic Pimp with honeycombed structure very
light fat skis. I would keep it for myself but I
have 5 pairs of fat skis already, including JJ
rockers. I simply do not need it.
This is exactly the same ski as the 2010 Dynastar 6th
Sense Big with different graphics.

Yours for $250!

Powder Cord Pouch (New)
 The
best way to keep your powder cords on you. The
easiest, fastest way to put them on and take them off,
especially when you have to do it frequently, as in
snowcat or heli-skiing. The powder cords always remain
in the pouch. All you have to do is strap the
pouch on and off.
Made in Eugene, Oregon,
from top quality materials. Adjustable straps. One size
fits all.
List price per pair,
without cords: $24.95
List price per pair, with
powder cords: $34.95
Powder cords alone:
$10.00.
Over 40% discount if you
order 10 or more.
The powder cords are bar
tacked at one end, and have a swivel hook triple
cross-stitched at the other end (for attaching to the
ski). They also include a 1" tempered steel split ring,
for quicker snapping onto the ski.
For more info, more
photos, an instruction video, and to place an order, go
to:
www.powdercordpouch.com.
Note: This is from Tom
Arnold, whom some of you may remember from our Sunny
South Oregon bus trip in 2008. We will also see
Tom on our Crystal Mt. trip in March 2009.
