These are listed on Ebay:

The text in the ad says:

I am very sadly selling these beautiful skis, because I have well and truly caught the snowboarding bug. They are Volkl Attiva Unlimited AC 1630 mm skis complete with Motion LT bindings. They are made exclusively for women.I have used the skis twice, once in Zermatt where I bought them at Christmas 07, and once in La Plagne in Feb 08.

www.skireviews.co.uk says:

<<Intermediate- Advanced-A little wider and easier to use than the 4 and 5* models, the AC is better suited to variable snow conditions and the odd foray off-piste. The sidecut is very versatile and these skis can be enjoyed by sporty intermediates upto good advanced skiers, great fun and a superb all-rounder.>>

I would say that i am an intermediate skier, but I stay on piste, so you needn't worry about the skis being scuffed up. There are one or two scratches, but all they need is a service.

The skis are really responsive and steady, nicely waisted and well balanced. The bindings are great too.

Furthermore, the skis look amazing!!! White all over with lovely pink Volkl text written across them. I also have boots to sell- have a look at my other items.

Buyer collects from Bristol, UK.

You may achieve more with your sale a bit closer to the start of the season. I would agree with you that the skis look like they need a service. If you don't get your sale, it may be worth getting them serviced and taking fresh photos, before trying again.

Indeed.

There looks to be a fair bit of surface rust on the bottom of the edges.
You'll probably need to get that sorted.

You are supposed to take them off at the end of the day, not wear them on the two mile hike on the road back to the chalet.

Seriously though, that's a lot of base abuse for a couple of weeks skiing. I don't think I could dry out bases that much in a full season.

Anyway, full credit to Lucy for showing good pictues.

Oooh Trencher, I read that as 2 days skiing, not 2 weeks

Anyway I have done that sort of damage in 3 days. Handed my nearly new Stockli's to dealership....endure techie's tutting while I made excuses
Wet snow conditions can leave skis looking undernourished IME.
