This past saturday i was skiing with my dad and some friends at Winter Park and we took a 20 minute break. When we came back out my dad's Rossignol B2's were gone. We checked with securtiy and nothing turned up. So if you guys see any Rossignol B2's(size 170) with Marker M1200 or M1300 bindings for sale, please send me a message. thanks

i really think resorts should keep lots of cameras on all the ski racks to prevent assholes from stealing skis

that sucks, what year are they? and is there anything like a big scratch or a sticker that you can tell apart from others? cause alot of people have b2's so it could be hard to find. i live in colorado so ill look out for them.

My ski resort has a free ski watch thing going on. You give them your skis then you get a number back and when your done doing what your doing you give them the number back then they give you your skis and it's all free.

^^^that is a good idea, id never just leave my stuff on a ski rack, i always take it inside, i know your not allowed, probably like it is at most mountains but 1 im just not gonna risk it, and 2 all of my friends are instructors so when im with them its like im invincible. but that definatly sucks, yeah check ebay, classifieds, and local pawn shops

I'm gonna have to start rocking the lock again. It's just worth the extra 20 seconds, than another 550 bucks....

Killington was so packed today, so scared to leave my skis around. Put them right on the window near my table.

dude from now on you should mismastch the pairs at lunch. take one of yours and one of his and put them together and put the other two somewhere else. That way someone has to try really hard to steal them and they may be more obvious in doing so. In general though it deters theivery because a theif wants to look confident like they belong to them and if he's lookinh all over for the second pair or walking around with a mismatched pair it looks suspicios.

^one more reason ski boots are better than snowboard boots. Hard shells break more bones.
