Rossignol Zenith Z9 Titanium with Axial 120 Bindings
Size: 176cm

Top-rated all-mountain ski, won the 2007 Ski Magazine Buyer's Guide
pick in the All-Mountain Expert Speed category.

Very nice graphic package to match a great ski:

Only 6 days on them, in excellent condition. Renting fatties for powder,
so these are just sitting waiting to be enjoyed by an advanced through
expert all-mountain skier. I've never skied a more versatile ski than this,
and I've skied on a LOT of different performance and racing skis.


PRICING:
List: $1099, kicking them out cheap to a 6speeder at $499.
Pick up in San Diego preferred. Will ship, but buyer pays shipping costs.

Bindings are moveable/adjustable for any boot size.

Feel free to PM me with questions.

 

I have a pair of Leki poles I'll throw in as well if you pick up locally.

 

I also have a FREE bar of ski wax to throw in if you pick up locally--woo-hoo!

 

Price Drop! $498!!! Whoa!!!

 

Those look different than the ones I have. Mine is orange...


Did Rossignol come out with different versions?

 

^^
For '08 they kept the same ski, changed the graphics, mine's the '07 graphic.

 

Looking for the Z11 size 176cm, can you help or recommend any store?

I am in SoCal as well and need them soon to hit back Mammoth Lakes at the end of the month.

Thanks.

 

My local store has PLENTY of those Z11's in stock but I highly recommend getting those Z9s instead. Get Super D's in fact. They're excellent skis.

 

I've heard the interchangeable "arms" in the Z11s are noisy, and if I'm not mistaken the skis are stiffer than Z9s as well (which is great, if you're into working harder). atomic80 is right, buy mine instead!

 

I did look closely at those interchangeable arms and they seemed a bit loose/flimsy. I wouldn't trust these to last.

 

I also heard that skis with interchangeable arms are only going to be allowed in states which support same-sex marriages after the 2008 season. That means Z11 resale value will be very limited.

Additionally, the material used on the Z11's interchangeable arms was recalled due to a dangerous sub-equatorial sunlight reflectivity issue. Several skiers in Chile and Australia were unexpectedly blinded while skiing and died in horrible accidents. One went off a cliff, landing in a river, crashing headfirst into a beaver dam. He didn't die from the impact, it was suffocation from one of the large inhabitants who immediately jumped him, and with the large beaver on his face, breathing was subsequenly obstructed. Some of you who attended colleges with sturdily-built promiscuous women in the farmbelt or Montana may be able to relate to this scenario, and can appreciate the fear he experienced. Horrible. Just horrible.

So, in short, Z11's are for ghey Massachusetts residents, or blind skiers living in the southern hemisphere. If you don't fall into one of those two categories, you must buy my Z9's.

 

Sold to a local yocal on c-list.
