I love the UPS man...

[Greg]

He brought my new Volkl Unlimited AC3s in 170 cm to me today. AT PCOS bindings to follow in a separate shipment.

Cool, looks like nice boards. Bet you can hardly wait to get out with them. I like the UPS man too, but our dogs absolutely HATE brown.

Buddy of mine demo'ed a pair at Okemo just before Xmas and loved them...

hey greg why didnt you get the ac4? Dont you already have a volkl ski without about the same waist as the ac3? You probably mentioned this before somewhere in the gear forum but I just wasnt following the convo.

"I love the UPS man..." (may want to keep that to yourself ) Hope you enjoy the skis, where did you buy them? Good deal?

What can Brown do for you?!?! Sorry couldn't resist.

Been looking at the AC3 for the longest time now. Any feedback on this? Greg, let us know how they turn out. Where did you buy them from?

 

[BeanoNYC]

Congrats! Have fun with them, Greg. :beer:

First set of Volkls although I demoed the 724 EXP (the AC3 predescessor) and loved them which is why I went for the AC3. Haven't demoed the 724 Pro or AC4 so I can't comment, but I felt the wider waist wouldn't do me much good in the bumps which I like to ski. The 74mm waist is a nice compromise, IMO. I'll let you all know when I get out on them; probably not until February... I "bought" them here:

Not sure how they are going to be in the bumps, but they have to be better than the K2 sleds (heavy and unforgiving) I'm on now. I figure the 74mm waist will give a bit more than the AC4 would. I also always search for natural snow terrain, crud, LGR on the sides of groomers, and I'm getting into trees a bit more so I think it's the ski for me. Dropping from a 182 cm to a 170 cm. Should be interesting.

Yup seeing brown come through the office door is great! He just brought my $50 Salomon s810 ti's from SAC the other day!!! (anybody else score that deal?)


....now I just need skis to mount them on, hmmmm....

174 foils maybe? Karmas? Flat Elan M666's? The new flat Head monster? hmmm......

I got them too. Although when Ty saw them she commented "Red? I told you to get Black!!!"

Red was all they had left when I got them...

Me too, but not the reason I went with these. I now have bright blue boots so I definitely won't be making a fashion statement... :lol:

Ooooh baby, the EXACT ski I've been thinking of - 170 AC3!!! Have been wanting to try and demo these somewhere. I'm on the 4 Star right now, which are pretty nice, but wondering if a 5 Star or AC3/AC4 might be even more fun

Nice midfats!

Hey, shouldn't this be moved to GEAR?
