Re: Possible Vintage Ski Year in BC
nice! I am watching the Whistler web cams with baited breath 
Home Depot? They remodelling before they move in?!
We had the people buying our house around last night measuring up, all very odd! They were very nice, but I had to fight the urge to shout 'get out of my house with your evil tape measure!'

Re: Possible Vintage Ski Year in BC
I just Googled and found a picture of my first pair of skis...
1987 Völkl Renntiger "R"s, as straight and skinny as you like, and a mighty 205cm long.
Getting them to turn at anything less than top speed was... "challenging".
Happy days.

Surely you have made up for your teeenage sins by owning one now though; now you are little more flush?

Isn't it funny how you can always tell the British holidaymaker skiers by their perfectly matched skis, outfits and accessories... and snowploughs!
