New kit for this year

Tony_H wrote:New sallos turned up today from the US. Absolutely mint they are, top drawer, great quality...............excpet they sent the wrong size :evil:
I ordered medium and they sent large, and when I emailed them, they said they are out of stock of medium now :twisted:

So they are going back to the US free of charge, and they are sending me an alternative more expensive pair by the same manufacturer with a £50 dollar refund :wink:

Gotta love the US stores for trying to make the customer happy. There are times when it would be nice to have a sale of goods act, but generally it's not needed because the customer service is so good.

Trencher

They are sending me a pre paid label to return to them, and sending out a replacement pair in my size, with the $50 dollar refund, which is only fair I guess under the circumstances. As they are sending out a replacement pair at their cost, I have no problem with having paid for one delivery at $30.

Rose, I already have red sallos, I dont need another pair. These ones are black.

Bought new skis this week.

Finally decided on Head Worldcup i slalom with FF14 bindings. Just what I was looking for and a genuine bargain @ £299 with a bag included.

This thread needs pictures to be a decent kit fest. Here is a photo of my latest purchase :D

I’ve already spent a fortune this summer as I’ve invested in my first pair of boots and skis. The problem is, they’re propped up in the living room and every time I walk past them they keep shouting “use me!!” The idea of summer skiing is looking all too tempting. Still, only another 4 months to go. )
I still need a bag to put them in, a new jacket (as the zip is broken on my old one) and probably another set of thermals. Oh, and a new woolly hat that doesn’t flop over my eyes… I can sympathise with skigirl who has just bought a horse though - mine eats me out of house and home!!! Why did I have to choose two such expensive pastimes? :roll:

An hour or two a snowdome would give you some peace and quiet, and let you test out your new kit in a fairly mundane environment :D

Are there any other girlies out there who pack 14 pairs of knickers for a 7 night holiday? Why 14? (plus one or two spares). My male friends always ask me this question. L.

Surely three are enough. After three days, turn them inside out? :shock:
Oops, I forgot, you are going with friends. Take two pairs, turn them inside out, and then swap them? :twisted:
