Hi Tony,

Have you thought about getting a pair of Palmer's. The ones that Trencher uses are still available for under £400. You could carve your Sunday joint with a pair of those bad boys! )

Hi Trencher,

Glad all is well and the Palmer's will be dusted off and put to good use in November, lucky thing. No, I use the more mundane Fischer Progressor but there still a lot of fun! I see Tony is after a new pair of ski's why is he not snapping up a pair of those palmer bad boys?

Anyway I have managed to highjack Broom's thread so must go and will catch up with you later.

Hi Trencher,

Hope you are well, countdown to December is now underway!

Last I heard he is working out of Zurs in Austria(Zurs Ski School) and yes he gives private lessons. IMO his DVD is the best Ski instructional film available. )

Great compehensive report Ally - Hope thats you sorted now :wink:

Those were Fischer race SC. They were sacrificed on the ebay alter to finance the Palmers. I was sad to see them go, a great carving ski.

Talk about the Ebay alter, since you gave us the node on the Palmer PO2 skis i have been trying to gain the capital to invest in pair. Been through the house looking for reduntant stuff to sell on Ebay only to be told by the OH that I have only used my Fischer's for two weeks skiing! :evil: and anyway "would no doubt end up being airlifted of the hill if i obtained a pair. So any money raised through Ebay will be spent on a new ski jacket in the sales. I am a bit worried I will become a total ski tart :lol: So it looks like I will have to wait until the end of next season before a new pair of skis is a realistic option :( A question Trencher, are the Palmers, in your view, better performers than your Fischer Race SC skis? Perhaps not in speed terms but in overall performance?

Great photos Trencher - not on your Palmers! :wink:

Oh Tony :lol: :lol: :lol:
