<description>G3 El Hombre Ski&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Trying to decide between the El Hombre in a 177 and the Baron in a 170.  155 lb, 5&#x27;10&#x22;, expert tele skier.  Been on the Atomic Kongur 177cm for the last 3 years - want a &#x22;turnier&#x22; ski for riding the lifts, all terrain &#x26; conditions.  Lots of short fat skis in Vail&#x27;s bowls really change the snow conditions, so I need to adapt.  Any recommendations?</description>

<description>K2 Piste Pipe Telemark Ski &#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;im 5&#x27;7 145, i&#x27;ve ski about 25 days a year since i was 6, i am thinking about size. i will ride these skis in the park exclusively. should i get the 159 or the 169. my current park skis are 170&#x27;s but they are pretty slim and there is not much ski there. they are also much lighter, but i intend to put a heavier binding on (BD 02) I feel like i should get the 169, but since speed has never been a problem i kind of want the 159, are they for teenagers and kids? &#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Thanks</description>

<description>&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;I need a cheap ($) ski and binding that will take me anywhere in any snow. Oh and it needs to last. I am 6foot 7, 225 pounds and althugh getting near 40 years old, can push the planks around a bit still. They dont last too long unfortunately. I was looking at your sale item Atomic Janak Bro Telemark Ski. and a Black Diamond 02 Tele binding. Whats your opinion? Please dont just go for the sale here, I need something that will work for me, and I am not too knowledgable on latest trends in ski gear. My Piste Stynx lasted 3 months. I have been skiing some old Rossi Hellgates. They are done. And I was told the HOMBRES might be the way to go. THoughts?</description>

<description>&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Hi! How come when I do  Google Search on the Rapid Transits, I get a page (http://www.google.c&#x3C;wbr /&#x3E;om/search?client=saf&#x3C;wbr /&#x3E;ari&#x26;rls=en&#x26;q=G3+Rapi +Transit+Telemark+Sk&#x3C;wbr /&#x3E;i&#x26;ie=UTF-8&#x26;oe=UTF-8) that displays BackCountry.com&#x27;s price for them of 	$389.97?  ON your website, you have them for $422.27...&#x3C;br /&#x3E;What should I know about this? Why the difference (not huge, I admit, but it all helps!)?   Can I get them for $390.00 or...?&#x3C;br /&#x3E;For the record I am a big G3 fan; have had the Tickets for the last 4 seasons..&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Thanks!&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Michael Grasseschi&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Boulder, CO &#x3C;br /&#x3E;303-819-1544</description>
