Picked these up today for 60 bucks, (i'm keeping the 3 skis on the left, ho slalom and obrien combo)

This site or the other, a member was looking for a part off a kid/trainer, would like the trainer pair to go to him for 20 bucks or he can have and i'll just mail him all the connector parts and do something with the skis

Otherwise 60 bucks for all/ 20 a pair and 20 for the obrien slalom.

Nice find 

Just from experience I have come the conclusion that the wider skis are good when teaching on the boom but become a challenge with new (first timers) to control when in the water due to the size / shape and flotation of the skis.  If you are doing a lot of teaching keep you eyes out for an old pair of d*ck Pope Jr's

The obrien freestyle combo (red pair) are 67 X 7 inches, w/ concave bottoms & plastic fins.

The obrien odyssey comp slalom (red slalom) is 66 X 7 1/2 inches, w/ concave bottom & plastic fin.

The obrien 35 amigo jr's  combo (green pair) are 53 X 8 3/4 inches, 6 inches at tail, w/ spoon shaped concave bottoms & plastic fins.

All the skis have minor scratches on the aluminum and minor scuffs on the plastic bottoms,  all the bindings are in very good shape with no tears and function properly.

FYI i got a quote for a box 4 X 19 X 72 from ups, the pair i sold left in a box that was 4  X 18 X 66, the guy at ups tried roumding up and charging more, the quote was 88 bucks and he tried rounding up to 101 bucks
I got two 4 X 27 X 37   mirror boxes from uhaul and cut them to fit, the extra cardboard was used to wrap the skis from touching eachother.

I'm interested in the green pair for teaching my daughter if you still have them. I'm local to Orlando and can pick up.

Thanks.
