Head monsters discontinued, line shifted to "more casual skier"

Got my closeout 102's last week and am so stoked. Those are serious skis! Alta/Snowbird here I come!

I don't think they went that far. It is better. You might like the Rossi Experience 98.

Can you still demo those at Wa-Wa?

No, it was a one day event put on by the shop there for customers. All 2012 gear. I'd look around to see if Rossi will be doing anymore demo's somewhere this Spring.

I am a creature of habit. What shop was it? Maybe I can call and see if they will let me demo them.

Yes, Fire on the Mountain in Dover, NH has a set of demos for all 3 Rossi Experiece skis. They have a pretty good policy on demos where the fees you pay accumulate. For example, if you demo five different set of skis at $30 a day, they'd deduct $150 from the price on the skis you end up purchasing. Not sure if that's common or not. I'd call in advance. Sounds like they only have one pair of each and are at a lot of Demos with them this spring.

I am looking the Peak 90's from Head. Not the Rossi's.

Sorry thought you were interested in the Rossi's as well.

That is not the norm. Very good deal.

So ten months after getting them we finally got enough snow for me to try them and love them. They are smooth. Love how they handle chowder yet drive nicely. I was very pleasantly surprised.
