Thread Starter 

I was wondering if their is any park and pipe/all mountain ski that is under $200. I was hoping to get a mens ski from 160-164 cm. it can have bindings and it can be used. Thanks guys

The best option is to check out the gear swap area.  

I'm not sure you'll find anything for your $$ available, but you never know. 

 

Some specific skis to look for are  Nordica Ace of Spades, Blizzard Solution, Line Circus (?), Rossignol Sprayer......

Last season Start Haus had a few pair of the Blizzard Solution on their close out rack, not sure if they have any park skis this season. 

 

Good Luck!!

I got a pair of 2011, K2 Silencers for $199.00. I did a quick search and didn't see much in stock online anymore, but you can try to find some.

 

I skied 11 days on them this season and they are a great all-mountain ski. I read reviews where people said they are a decent park ski too. Unfortunately, I don't ski park anymore after breaking my tib/fib clean through. biggrin.gif

SierraTradingPost.com usually gets some good deals if you are just looking for a ski and don't care about make/model. 

 

If you just want something cheap I've got some 06 Volkl Dogen's kicking around, the bindings are the Marker Free series which are worth more than the ski. I bought the ski in 2008 new. Skied for a half season and switched but did ski park so I will check edges and such before selling them to give an accurate assessment. 

 

If you are an aggressive skier outside of the park look else where, I went up to the Wall since the Dogens are soft core skis that handle ok in the park but would not be a great all around ski. If you have any interest I would sell them for $150 with the bindings. I live near Boston in case you need shipping. 

 

Picture of the ski. Again I can send real pictures and the whole deal if you are interested.
