Dude, Voile has about the cheapest MSRPs you'll find. Get a coupon code for your favorite online retailer, use your tax return and get it over with.

Hey look, I gave you a free bump.

Andyski,
Not exactly the point: Reduce, reuse, recycle.

Still looking for my partner's first pair of powder boards.

I have a pair of 192 cm Drifters -- But I'm having a hard time imaging anyone wanting to sell a pair of Drifters or Chargers -- they ski amazing and they are impressively light for their freakishly huge size.  Perhaps once the pow turns to corn... someone will need some dough -- but not while there is fresh to be had.

...  But they ski corn so well, and when corn turns to slush?  Oooooh, aaaaaaaaah...

No, I'm not a telephone solicitor.  I ski with my heels free.

Randy,
Yeah, I know.  I just got some Chargers and on day #2 decided they were my favorite skis I've ever been on.   I figured it would be hard to find.  Hoping someone got the wrong size given how short they ski.

Here's to stickin' to it.  I'll find 'em.

Andyski,
Not exactly the point: Reduce, reuse, recycle.
And because of your efforts, the scourge of high-end powder skis filling our landfills has thusfar been averted. Or you could support one of the few U.S.-manufactured ski companies AND a Washington-based retailer by buying 162 Drifters on sale ($550) from Mountain Gear, which is an awesome shop: http://www.mountaingear.com/webstore/Gear/Snowsports/Skis/Voile/Voile-Drifter-Ski/_/R-230122.htm

Andyski,
Yup, I could:  I already bought my pair of Chargers from REI.  Used is the way to go for this pair though and I don't see the harm in that.  Why the negativity/sarcasm anyway?  Let me conduct my ski purchases the way I choose.  Thanks for the mountaingear heads up; I've been eyeing that as an option.

By the way, still looking...

Thanks!
