    HO CDX-1

    Have been looking around for a new ski and came across this HO CDX-1 on ebay. Wound up with the winning bid and now it's mine. I was kind of surprised to win the auction but now I have a pretty cool new ski and didn't have to shell out a bunch for it. Ski arrived with original stickers in place so it has not been used. Had it out for my first run of the year and I was a little rusty, but it seems to ride well. Just need to tweak the fin a little. So here's the question - what year is it? Anyone have one and like/dislike it? Was it worth the $300 I paid?

    That's a 2000 CDX.
    I had a 2002 and loved it.
    You still can buy a 2002 new at Willeys and it's something like 550 with double Animals like yours. So I guess if your ski is new 300 is not a bad price.

      I had the exact ski and loved it. Back in 99' - 2000, that was the ski to have, it was the ski of choice at all the tournys back then. In fact, people had to start putting there names on them because they were getting them mixed up. But I digress, this ski is a little softer than the composite highend skis of today, which is great if your working on just starting to shorten the line (15 - 28 off), or getting up to speed (32 - 36 mph) If your into serious shortline, the newer skis are a little better due to technical and stiffness improvements in the last 5 years. $300 is a very good deal. Have Fun on that thing!

        Oh yeah, I forgot one thing. when you bought this ski brand new, it came with a video on how to ski it. Basically it was a "look at me" video with Wade Cox and friends, but kinda cool none the less.

          I'm still on an '02 and no problems. I started skiing the course on it from scratch and finally getting into it's potential and getting close to 22' off.
          I don\'t care.

            Gunnin - thanks for the info, and you described my skiing in your post. I stop upping the spped at 34 mph and have gotten into 22 off, so it sounds like the ski will work out well. And it even came with the Wade Cox video you mentioned. Haven't watched it yet but I'll have to give it a look. Should be a fun season with the new ride.
