SOLD Karhu Guides (Annum) with Switchbacks

Guides are 175 (109-78-95).
These later became the Madshus Annum.
Voile Switchbacks are standard length and are not X2.
Almost new (probably used 5 times).
I'm thinking $325 (which includes shipping).
I would rather give a "I don't have to mess with shipping" discount if you are near Jackson WY.

Very nice!

You or anyone heading toward Ketchum?

Would love to pick these up for skiing with my kid.

Sorry to say, not heading that way.
(Maybe someone heading that way will overhear this.)
Happy to pass them off in Victor or Driggs if you (or anyone) is heading to Targhee.
I found a ski shipping box that they fit in (tightly because of the bindings), so that option is there.

Need to pass as they are just a hair short.

Killer deal for someone else though!

Thank you!

Hi-- I'm very interested in these (I would need shipping though). Do you think these are the right length if I'm about 143 pounds (without winter gear and pack)? They have fishcales in the middle right? Feel free to email me at fizbin22 at gmail dot com Frank

Yes, the Guides have fishscales.
I'm not sure about the size (175) and your weight (143) -- pretty sure 175cm was 2nd shortest out of 4 sizes -- the Madshus Annum is the same ski.
Ah, I just found this site that shows skier weight and ski length recommendations for the Annum.
https://www.gearx.com/madshus-annum-78-bc-ski-f16
Shows 120 - 150 lbs. = 175cm.
So, it should work.
