Mogul Ski Limited Offer
NSW Freestyle Subcommittee has once again negotiated a very attractive deal for young skiers to buy entry level specialised mogul skis.
The great pricing will allow young skiers to participate in mogul skiing, particularly at Interschools level, with skis specifically designed for the discipline. The softer flex and longer radius will allow the athlete to absorb the bumps but still nail the jump. We are currently offering the Hart Rocket CL ski, suitable for Division 4 and 5 skiers, for an incredible $289 delivered to Jindabyne. This is less than half the recommended retail price.
This offer is available until 4th May and stocks are limited. If you would like to order mogul skis, please contact Daniel Bosco at daniel.bosco@bluey.com.au
