What do you do with 10 year old straight skis?

give up?

If you've exhausted all the fine suggestions as non-starters, consider this:

I use the one for my town. I've given away everything that I don't want to see in a landfill but no one will give a penny for. Just gaveaway a rug there on Monday. Costs noone nuttin.

p.s., ever notice when you have a yard sale and put your boards out for $5 nobody takes them. But later that week when you put em with the trash they are gone before the 'man comes!

Well I put them out with the trash today and lo and behold they were gone when I got home...sniff, sniff.

Honestly did not think the G-men would take them so perhaps a neighbor snagged them...

I think I would have an easier time cutting off a finger than tossing out old skis. I still have 1978 Renn Tigers to prove the point. Can S444 bindings be serviced?

Don't talk like that, man....

....or the ski gods might sneak up on you and beat you with some Cubco's.... :lol:

Geez, I haven't heard "Cubco" in many years... Ah, the old "ankle breakers"...

Those were the days, before than ambulance-chasing liability lawyers were in their prime...
Now that I think about it, I'm suprised that Cubcos didn't dissuade me from skiing... Then again, the notion of "premature release" was just something we all were accustomed to. At least I missed the leather boot era. I digress.

If you have a rec room, you can make a shelf or two with them. Real simple.

Allow me to reiterate:

Shot Ski.

I' m ready to make a 4 shot glass holder out of my old K2 Fours (193cm)..i've seen where the shot glass is held onto the ski by a rubber suction cup...any ideas on where to find that?? i have the ski and the glasses, just need the suction part...i guess i could scuff up the bottom of the glass and ski and epoxy/silicone the glass to the ski too...but i'd be nice to be able to remove the glass for cleaning etc...
