Hey, I would use those. I had the plain metal color ones and I recall they were some of the best bindings ever. Even the runaway (Ahrlberg) straps look familiar. The only thing was adjusting the heel required pulling those stays and screwing them to the right length. I wasn't too crazy about that ogee on the boot heel the roller fit into either.

Its almost here.

Alright folks. Anyone remember even SEEING a pair of these
MAGNESIUM Dale boots?



Must have been a joy on real cold days, don't you think

And did you go to your local machinist for your boot fitting?

Ya, but they also go great with the diving bell suit for walking around 20,000 leagues under the sea..

You guys have some great stuff and the love comes through loud and clear!
I've been collecting for years, mostly wooden skis.
I do have a cellar full of more modern stuff that needs a new keeper.
I've posted pics here before, but here is one again.
I really like how your collections are organized........ here is the antithesis!

I see Blue ones in the top pic and possibly some green ones tucked away in the bottom pic.. I think the green ones might have been called "Hexcelerators", but who knows.. I just remember I always wanted a pair of Hexecls.

I think that they are 205 or 207 255 GS with a AA race stock sticker.
Solid blue bases as opposed to the rainbow base, consumer ski.

I had the same Rotomats mounted on Kastle RX National Team SLs of a similar vintage.

Aren't you a little young to build a time machine?

Why yes, yes we are.

Aren't those jumping skis? If the rest of those are in the 200-210 range, those must be at least 240 or more.

If you can't ski, do tricks!

Ok walls of old skis now I don't feel so bad for hanging on to everything. But these photo of The Ski make me want to ask who still a pair of The Ski Ballet? As I remember they were black, Not the Black Majics. I still have a pair of Spademan S4s looking for the right pair of skis.

I don't recall The Ballet Ski being black, I am not disagreeing with you, I just don't recall them being black.

I do have the right pair of skis for your Spademans though



There are Tyrolia's on them now, but S4's would be much better.

Granted that was almost thirty years ago so my memory is open to interpretation.

Now if i were a purist I would have to move a pair a SRS SuperIIs to the blue and yellows.

How hard is it to separate the toe rests?

One last question, TRS is that "the red ski" or "the race ski"?

They were 'The Race/Racing Ski. Someone posted a pair on here a few years ago, IIRC with Bessers. There was another incarnation that hasn't shown up yet, they were the white/black ones with circles vs. squares. I skied with a guy a few years ago that had a pair. I am trying to track them down, or at least a picture.
