- My SO bought me a new pair of skis for Christmas (yes I got them
- early!). The original ticket price was $565 Can and I got them
- for $199 Can. They're Hagen Classic RC's. The salesman assured
- us that I was getting a great ski as well as a great deal. It's
- not the price that concerns me, but all I now about Hagen
- skis is that they're European. Anybody have experience with these
- skis? They have a wood core rather than a foam core and are
- supposed to be ideal for hard packed powder and icy conditions
- which is what I see most in my area. He also told me not to waste
- money on buying new bindings since mine are in perfect condition
- so, we figure he was honest if he didn't encourage us to spend more
- money in his store.
-
- By the way, I'm an intermediate skier and I ski simply for fun,
- therefore, I'm not bothered if they're last year's model.

- Thanks,
