"Why take a picture? Just take them all" the nice lady said.

New additions - the Haute Routs are 195, the 244's are 204s. All are drilled for 444s and appear to be old demos from the shop I worked at. The Jr Red Masters are probably from the shop as well.

Always wanted to ski a pair of Haute Routs but never got the chance, great find. I did own a pair of 710's and was not impressed got rid of them quick maybe it was just me that did not like them because they sold a lot of them.

Is there a reason you stand the Olin and the Hanson one tip up and one down? Your are the first I have seen do it.

I do that so the tails can be seen above the coats on the coat tree that usually sits in front of them in that corner by the front door. They are sweet tails, eh?

Edit, went back to the shed with a chisel and got a 626 window out. Trimmed it with tin ships and glued it in. It was a DIN 1-9 instead of the old 1-4 but it will hold and look a little better for now. Note to self, goo gone makes that kind of plastic worse and not better when using it to clean up glue. Other than that it is fine. View attachment 6225

Finally swapped out a Salamon 1-4 727 window so the TRS toes are all good and match better. Gull disclosure replacement window says Salomon instead of EQUIPE but that's alright..

The ROC 550 hit the market in 1971. The ST650 came out in 1976. If my memory serves me.
I seem to remember that the ROC 550 and the ST 650 came out the same year. ROC 550 was the GS and the ST 650 was the SL ski.

edit to add a few more. Kneissl, THE SKI, K2, K2 Mickey Mouse.

How did those K2 poles end up with Scott grips and those baskets look different.
[/QUOTE]

Nice, you have the model specific poles. Mine just say Comp. Here is another pair of K2 poles I overlooked. They also have Scott grips that look out of place but they have the identical baskets. I think the baskets could be original or they are generic replacement baskets used in ski shops of the time. I should get a better color match on the 244 grips.

Yes they are model 610 Comp as yours are the 244's and I did have the K2 610 skis to match. They were a fun ski, listed as a recreational racer but I liked to ski them in the bumps because they were soft and easy to ski. Did you have the K2 244's to match the poles?

Yes, have the 244 MIDs. They have black 727s but my boots are too small for them so I have yet to take them out. I have orange equipes on another pair of skis and have been thinking about swapping them. I have the match for the Volkl P10, Salomon equipes, Atomic tricomps, white THE SKI and Mickey Mouse. Oh, and Rossi 4S and Mark IV Comps.
