Kid skis


Any thoughts on what to do with them since they won't fit for the 08/09 season?...

Sell 'em at a swap in the fall. Help to pay for the new set.

Also, nice to hear you are graduating to big kid skis.

That is why I always did seasonal rentals for my children. Every year they get a new pair of skis (for them) & you don't have to deal with getting rid of them when they outgrow them. Just turn them in. Also, if there are any problems with the equipment during the year, the ski shop will fix it for free (for the most part).

Thats what they were season rentals but new ones. The shop went out of business the next year and he sold me two sets of skis and boots for $120.00 So it was an easy choice.
