Looking for NOS Volkl Supersport 4 or 5 stars. Prefer 170-175 length.

Any leads appreciated

Not sure what "NOS" means, but try "The Source" on 28N in North Creek. They have a good supply of used skis. You should be able to Google their phone # if you're not in the area. eBay is the other place to find a decent deal.

i think NOS means never on snow??? or something like that. my dad has a pair of 5 stars that he hasnt skied on in a while. im not sure where his head is at with them but if he wanted to sell them id sure he would give you a good price.

I believe I saw a pr of new 5 star on GalacticSports.com. Very good price...that said, they may have been sligltly used. I recall thinking if I had an extra 250, I would buy them.

Update:

Cunninghams LP has lady version of the 2004-05 vintage. The have 161s and 168s. I found the same ski 5 minutes from my place of employment in NJ, however, my son stated he would disassociate from me if I appeared on the snow with them.

The search continues.

Too bad you don't want shorter . . . My wife has 5 stars (the "men's" version) but in a 153 . . .

I did a quick check on all the old sites and didn't find any 5 stars . . . Did find these, though:

Any reason why you're looking for a 5 year old pair of skis in new condition?

I have had good fortune picking up high performing NOS older skis for low $$$. Most of the newer stuff does not appeal to me, both in dimension and price.

Another ski I would be interested is the Dynastar Trouble Maker, the 2004-05 vintage (the green ones). Both my sons ski those and report only the best. Their skiing covers bumps, pow, ripping on groomers, aerials, and the pipe,.....basically aggressive all mountain skiing. I am amazed their boards have not fallen apart after the many seasons they have abused them. I would be interested in a 175 on those if anyone has a lead on them. All I have been hearing about the new TMs is they delami at the tip, day one, in many cases.

I saw the Supersports you indicated, however, I am not feeling the $499 price tag just yet. The search continues.
