Title says it all. They're the 2020 Prodigy 2.0 x dragon skis. Mounted with Pivot 14s. No edge cracks, some minor topsheet and base scratches. No coreshots.

Idunno how much I could get for them.

A good starting price: Retail - 40% (slightly beaten up).

By slightly beaten up it's all cosmetic. Nothing performance wise. Only have like 15 days on em

Yeah but cosmetic damage takes value off

I’d recommend selling without binding, keep the binding

i won't try to name a good price but their being used at all with some cosmetic damage means you can't expect a super high number for them. people really commonly overprice their used gear online

sure you bought them for $xxx.xx and hardly used them but put yourself in the buyer's shoes-- what makes it worthwhile to buy your used ski rather than from a shop? a little damage already, who knows what they've been put through (for all i know you came *this* close to snapping the core but no damage shows), they are mounted now so either the buyer uses them where they are or remounts and has an extra set of holes, there's no warranty now i think, etc...

not saying they need to be free but be realistic!

Were they used in the park? On rails? Give them a fresh wax before selling.

They're $380 on freeze pro right now. Add in pivots. I'd say $175-220 for the skis depending on how good condition they really are. I'd add another $125-150 for the pivots if they were brand new since pivots are about $200 from eBay right now. This combined price of $300-370 shipped.

I really just pulled this out of my ass though

The candide is just more what I'm looking for in a ski. Also they're making it stiffer which I want for that shape. I loved my 2020 CT 3s before they snapped, so the same shape narrower would be an awesome park ski for me

It’s the same shape but it’s not the same ski, it’s wayyy heavier and damper than the CT 3.0

Sounds even better. The light weight core in the 3 made it break so yay
