Elan Magfires

I'm starting to grow out of my first set of skis and I talked to the owner of my resorts pro shop. I'm getting to be an aggressive skier that's getting more adventurous (thanks Pav!). So he recommended them. I took them out for about 10 minutes. Since I had to hurry because I needed to get back to work. I took them out on wet sloppy snow and I've been working 6 days this past week working my bum off. When I took them out I had a hard time getting the back of my left ski up to slide it back to make a turn. These new skis are a lil' bit heavier then my other ones and I know I'm going to grow into these. My question is. Is it the ski's or is it a combo of me being tired from work and a wider "tail". I'd love to bring these babies home. They are sexy!

Ice Ghost,
It is you. Just today my son came to see me since he was skiing on the 2009 model for three days! Loved them! Wanted a pair! That pair!
Those skis are fast becoming the fastest selling Elan skis!

Go ahead treat yourself to them! You deserve them! They will take you to another level,,however take lessons right away! If you can get some video tape of yourself!

As far as weight,,I have noticed that it seems to be "creeping" up! I am now testing some K2 2009 models and yes they feel heavy and are heavier! I am going to weigh all new skis from now on!

Send me via PM your address and I will send you a great DVD Elan has produced, which can act as a "model" for your expert skiing! It features the very skis you want!

I gave them a loving home today.... MINE I got them on sale for $514 they were $850. They are the red ones and they are hot. When I was walking out to my car with them I noticed how heavy they were. At my resort we've been blessed with a nice layer of good snow so tomarrow after work I'm going to talk one of the instructors into giving me some lessons on my technique. Hard to believe that the first week of December I was scared spitless to get back in them and when I did I couldn't keep them on! Now I'm so so so much better thanks to the crew on j2 (that means Pav) :P


These perhaps?

You deserve great skis! Enjoy.

:D thanks. I'm going to take em' for a spin tonight after I get out of work

Work????
Work????

Is that a new ski technique?

How do you do this work thing? Please enlighten me!

I work at a dumpy little resort in Ohio. I just make sure no one gets killed on the lifts.

Iceghost,

Then one day get into your car and drive to Sunday River,,where you can try an Elan SL 165 cm. World Cup!

Heaven!!!

They are waiting for you!
