'06 Rossignol Z9s 170cm

The top sheet is scratched up, but not too bad. There is a nice coreshot next to the edge (look at pic) that I partially filled with some epoxy. I haven't skied it in a while this season and needless to say, the ski could use a good tune. Has probably <20 days on them. Integrated bindings included.

$180 + shipping OBO

We can also arrange for pickup if I'm in the area.

Dude there's a big core shot right near the edge..


I have a different concept of 'core shot' than you. To me 'Core Shot' means the 'core' of the ski is broken down and the torsional rigidity of the ski is compromised. Much more common in foam core skis.


As for that shot on the edge that you are calling a 'core shot', the repair looks clean. I've got a repair like that on my Bandit X's, which occurred ten days on them by hitting a rock in the woods. They skied perfectly fine for another 75 days after as my primary ski nd I still have them. They're actually 'core shot' by my definition now, but I keep them around as the softer flex makes them great for bumps.

at second look, the shot appears unfixed, but that's still a simple $25 repair. The filler / P -tex used to fill mine was clear, not black in color.....which is why at first I thought they were reparied.


The seller should at least get that repaired and the rust off the edges before he sells them.

Why are you selling them?

Are they skiable with the damage?
I haven't used them in a while. I have 2 other skis (Rossi B2s and BD Havocs with AT bindings) and just got a 3rd (mounting with tele)...kinda don't need a 4th just sitting around and I've been skiing lots with my AT boots, which I'm not sure if they'll drive the Z9s that well. I'm also moving and just rather have less to take.

I did ski them after the damage, don't remember how many more days. I think I skied them ~5 days the first year I had them. Last season I skied 15 days and at least 5-6 of those were on rented AT skis. So they definitively have a lot of "life" left on them, I just made the mistake of choosing thinly covered lines :)

3 years old and 200 bucks with a coreshot..go lower..
They have less than 30 days, maybe even less than 20 days on them. I put a price up, but that's what the OBO is all about. If you want them but don't feel they're worth that cuz you'll have to put some $$ in to fix then fine, work with me.

The ski is definitively skiable and I did the quick epoxy just to have them for the rest of the season. I'd get them fixed professionally - or if you know your stuff just do it yourself.

Honestly, I'd rather work on a price agreement and not have to take it in to get tuned - the ski shop I go to is just not that close and I just don't have the tools to do it myself.

I agree and for less money..Does the price include the binders??
Z9s have integrated bindings, so yeah.

btw, a little history on the core shot...

It was acquired at the steep little wall left of K-27 going onto East Side Drive at Hunter. I spent too much time on that edge and then I heard the telling sound.
