There's a pair of pretty much brand new 26.5 TX Comps at the Boulder Sports Recycler. Forgot to take a picture of the tag but pretty sure they were around $150.

Gah. I wish these were 26.5s...

I was pleasantly surprised last season after ditching NTN for those same T-1s and Vices (w/ stiffy springs). Killer setup for the resort. Probably helped, though, that I went dow...

They might be long, but they have a lot of rocker in the tip, so they'll ski shorter than the advertised length. What kind of T-1s did you score? Four-buckles? More than enough boot... I might ditch the Hammerheads for the Vices, though, since you'll get that extra ramp in the toe area and some stif...
