I woke up at 4 this morning to pee and decided to check my 'woots' before turning back in.
Great price, but I have a similar one from ems.

I find that my Kelty Redwing does very well at handling skis. Just strap them on the sides and tuck the tails of the skis into the pockets and voilah...you're off!

Good buy.

But anyone who tries to buy it now will find that they are SOL.

The more I think about it. The sadder I am that I didn't pick it up as a Christmas gift for my Brother-in-Law.

Try Backcountry.com directly. Steepandcheap is a "side" company of theirs...same cust serivce reps, etc.

Worth a shot. Don't forget to look in the OUTLET section.

Thanks TB and SkiDog ... I tried everything, but alas no luck. I betcha that Blackdiamond has the companies send them back to them and then they dump them onto Steepandcheap. Probably how that all works.

Actually I think its just Backcountry's "overstock"....I could be wrong. It does make sense that the actual distributor would have backstock in a product and sell it off cheap to a place like backcountry.com to get rid of it. Backcountry marks it up SLIGHTLY and sells it off quick on steep...I am pretty sure you're not getting "first run" this years model stuff off steep...I've bought a few things and never cared to look to see if they were last years model or discoutinied...didn't care...the prodcut was good...the price was STELLAR and thats all I need...

I dont buy ANYTHING that NOT on sale...just how I "roll" HA

Everything that I've checked out and/or bought has been the previous year's model. Which is no big deal to me, as long as it works. :)

Actually, I did! She'll like the pink. Maybe she'll actually use goggles now. She's a fair weather skier who likes to go slow and usually keeps them on her head but not over her eyes. TB.......good gift for Mrs. TB....


The price is right on that one.

I hear ya, my man. Technically speaking she's a solid skier. She's just real timid while skiing. Towards the end of the season I think she she finally "got it" that blues are safer than crowded and skied off greens. I'm looking to get her into a multi-day clinic next season to build confidence. In my minds eye, I use Mrs. ALLSKIING as a goal of where I want her to be someday. They have similar personalities off the slopes but Mrs. ALLSKIING tears it up big time with two boards under her feet.
