He seems like a big boy, but understand that most bindings require the kid to be 30 lbs. My almost 3 year old is still only 26 lbs. :lol: Her almost 6 year old sister is barely 40 lbs. My kids have always been peanuts...

I think he's around 25lbs right now. Never been too worried about my kids being too small. ;)

My 3yo is around 50lbs...

He was 25.5 lbs at his check up in September. I wouldn't be surprised if he was 26.5+ now. He's actually small for his age compared to Mags. :eek: And yes, she weighed in at 50 lbs at the ER last week. But that's because she was clothed, with shoes, holding a dishrag to her gashed head... we can subtract a few pounds for all that, right? ;) Luckily, they're also very tall for their ages.

Yes, we were hoping to score another phenomenal deal. Guess the $10 skis/bindings was a once in a lifetime thing. :lol: $50 or under would have been nice, though. It's not likely he'll be doing a massive amount of skiing in the next 2 years, but I do want to start him young.

I picked up these for my 2 yr old : http://www.levelninesports.com/head-2006-xrc-junior-skis-blue-67cm-p-2320.html

They were only $39 at the time, but it's still a good price. I also found brand new atomic kids bindings on Geartrade.com for $5 being sold by Backcountry.com.
