bmwskier I'm not seeing PRE skis on that list. I had a pair of 1200SP's and there's still a pair of the later versions under an outbuilding waiting patiently for conversion to "something"

rickbolger I had (still have) that exact model & color of Hanson boots in the photo above! They never had that kind of impact when I wore them.
ciscokid Not to change my own thread but who has some of these current not so popular brands, some never heard of? https://nicetoskiyou.com/skis-equipment/list-of-ski-brands-2020/ Think I need fat-yupus
Remski I’ve a pair of Swallow Accent skis with Silvretta 404 AT bindings. Don’t no if they’re still making skis but according to Bloomberg they manufacture leisure products.
