you are going to TRIP OUT. I stumbled upon a pair of waxable 10th MTN, 84-68-74. Just like my beloved ones, only 203! Just for you! Maybe the'll even ship em out to you from Colorado?
The Asnes sale has begun at Neptune Mountaineering! Someone has already pounced on the Ingstad 200s - was it Mike? Some other good ones still available.

Nice! So you bought 'em before the sale. Not a bad move, you were living dangerously by continuing to wait, someone would have bought them. Hopefully they will re-stock over the summer.
so you now have both the old and new combat skis! So different. I wonder how long it took to evolve from the USGI skis to the current Ingstad model.

Yes both, both in the same length. I think the old ones are quite old, I'd guess 70's or early 80's.
I hope the new ones will be much more like modern ski, which I suspect they will. Johnny really loves those Cecilie skis so I'm hoping these will be every bit as good for me.
I see the Breidablikk are on sale and they have a 200cm!!
I was going to wait until next year and buy them full price anyway, I didn't figure I'd get to snap that 200 Ingstad up on clearance. Had the money now, so I went for it.

The older one were probably made by the company before it went tits up closed down and later resurfaced as the company we now know.
