Uses for old skis

I have a stack of old skis that I'm trying to use for stuff so far i've made this https://newschoolers.com/web/forums/readthread/thread_id/244708/

I need some more ideas. I thought about making a bench, but really have no need for one. I am thinking of making a beer pong table, but again, i would not use it much and it would be kinda large. I don't want to do some thing like put them on my car. Really all I've got is to make a book shelf, I could at least get some use out of that.

Your ideas?

my friend took an old pair of skis and made a head board for his bead with them.  he put one on each end of the head board and then screwed them to a piece of plywood that he had cut in an arch and rounded the edges off.  Then he spraypainted it and covered the thing in stickers and stencils. its pretty ill

sacrafice them to the snowgods in a fire. therefore you will have a good winter with ALOT of snow, hopefully. no guarantees though.

I would consider the lay-z-boy if I had a crappy one, and a truck to put it in. Just wouldn't work in a 4runner. i work at a resort to so i could bring shit like that up a hill on the lift, as long as I could carry or ride it onto the lift.

Yes it is. Theres like 1500 dollars worth of skis on there. They must have gotten some factory defects or something.
