If Fall-Line ski magazine ski test says it's the best out there, then that'll do for me.

If I get as many holidays out of them as my trusty old Rossi B2s, then they'll be a great investment.

Nice. You will have to report how they ski.

I have never been that impressed with the reps from Ski Club GB and frankly couldn't see how membership was cost-effective. But this may just be me. In resort, the reps seem to spend a lot of their time trying to sell memberships and quickly hit on likely punters early on. I've eavesdropped on some of their advice to members in resort and have often disagreed. But this isn't a systematic survey, so I may just be unlucky.

Andy, 20m rad, going retro!

I guess the challenge now, Andy, is for you to give the SCGB discounted price for the skis, and let Bandit prove/disprove the theory that this would be a percentage discount off the top line price. AND, that this could be found at a more competitive price.

Full offer definition required!

My experience allows me to place a side bet on Bandit ~ but then you never know.....

Oooh the pressure :shock:

20m radius rad? I don't think so, my little 165's have a bigger turn radius, and will ski anywhere. Still, this is an interesting ski, longer turns on the tip and tighter out of a turn using the tail, so I suppose if you can work the full length of the ski it should prove quite versatile. It will be a world of difference from a B2*.

Amateur, non expert view* :mrgreen:

I'm with Msej449 on the behaviour of some SCGB members and their Reps. I've sat and listened to their behaviour in restaurants in France and Switzerland, and seen them behaving badly in the place where I hang out. They've not been back there in the past winter or two, it's nothing I said, as I pretended to be a local :D

Mine are the original B2s, which the following season became the B3. So the Alibis would be that different, just wider under foot which is what I'm looking for.
