Missing Skis?

I recently found a pair of 2020 171 ON3P Magnus 90s in a trash can at my local ski hill in Maine, the edges are trashed and the skis are delaminated at the tip of one ski and tail of the other ski. I’m assuming they’re trash seeing as I found them in a trash can in this condition but I wanna make sure nobody is looking for them before I get them remounted and make them my street skis.

Those look like intact edges - nice find, probably has a lot of life yet.

Prolly just some kid whose parents are willing to buy them new skis anytime something happens to them that’s a minor inconvenience to fix. A few kids at my hill do this and it annoys tf out of me cause it’s so wasteful. You don’t need a new pair of skis everytime there’s more than two edge cracks or a slight delam in the tip or tail

Yeah dog, 6 bolts and a bottle of glue later they’re in good condition. Looks like whoever had em tried to epoxy them and it came apart.

This was more of a rant about people at my home hill lol. But from what I’ve seen at other hills it’s a common problem with certain demographics of kids

Good you found them and are giving them another life. I would have rescued them too. That would hurt my soul seeing those in the trash. I have the same ones

They still had bindings? Damn someone really doesn't care. Also check how much they can adjust before you remount.

This is a reason why I don’t go to hv when invited by friends who make the trip up there about once a month. The like 3 times I’ve been there I rode a lift with some cocksucker spoiled ass kid and they’re so oblivious

He lives in salt lake, the skis were found in Maine. Grant or grape or what ever he goes by now has Kartel 108s according to his bio, and the skis that were found were Magnus 90s. I know it is obvious that he is trolling but just found this funny.

There’s a good little scene up here and at KB and a smaller one at the Mont but I’d agree whole lotta young kids at HV that are way out of touch and on the slope team and also ones who just go skiing every other weekend and think they’re the shit. If u do end up making a trip up here tho hmu and let’s ride

Why'd you take them?



It sounds like they were right where they belonged, in the fucking trash.

Are you capable of taking a joke? The fact that it is such a different location is the point. Lol
