156cm Volkl Auras. 130-94-113, radius 16.9 meters. An extremely popular women's ski. Everyone loves them. I loved these skis... until I realized I wanted longer ones. You do not need to be an expert to ski these, but if you are an expert they're still fun. These skis can do just about everything well - groomers, bumps, trees, crud, powder. About their only weakness is true eastern ice, and even this they can handle, although it won't be as much fun. The skis have been drilled once for the currently mounted Rossignol Axial 2 120 Ti bindings (DIN range 4-12). The shop where I had them mounted was extra careful to ensure no dimpling of the bases when they were mounted (unfortunately the Aura is a thinner ski, so this often happens inadvertently). The bases are in good shape - never any repair work needed. They've just had wax and edge sharpening as needed. The top sheets have a couple of dings, nothing major. I'd keep em if they were 163s, but alas they're not. See the photos below for details.

Skis are in the Boston area, but could arrange transport to Western MA or NH. Asking $350 OBO.
