Comments about O'Brien O'Brien Celebrity Combo Skis 68:

Ok, winner, we put these skis to the test of happiness. Our 13 yr old son has never gotten up on skis. With a little patience and encouragement. he was up, skiing in control, and smiling!

Our 11 year old athletic daughter managed the slalom on her first try!

These are adult skis that a strong child can manage. We were all happy!

I bought them as a gift.

Comments about O'Brien O'Brien Celebrity Combo Skis 68:

These are great beginner skis and make it easy to teach. They look nice and I don't think you can get a better ste of skis for the money. There's nothing in the area under the bindings so your foot slips around a bit.

Comments about O'Brien O'Brien Celebrity Combo Skis 68:

I bought a boat last year and purchased another brand of ski and i could never get up and last very long. With these Celebrity skis I got right out of the water and they rode very smooth and were effortless to turn or cross the wake. I am a beginner/intermediate skiier who used to ski a lot but didn't have a boat for th past 14 years. I am also not a skinny person about 70 pounds overweight and I had no problem getting out of the water or staying up, they turn beautifully and ride nicely on top of the water.

Comments about O'Brien O'Brien Celebrity Combo Skis 68:

1st time out on water we skied for a while with a lot of success and fun. When we pulled the skis out, the slalom ski had a large stress fracture between the front and rear bindings. Luckily no one got hurt from a broken ski. Right now O'Brien is reviewing the case for warranty. Hopefully I'll get a new ski sent my way.

Haven't been skiing in 10 years and was able to get right up on these skis. They are stylish and comfortable. They gave me the confidence to ski again after 10 years! Not only for myself but also my 2 nephews who also hadn't been on skis for the same amount of time. None of us had any problem.
