Are you talking about the Ultra Flex ski? My friend's dad actually owned the company that made them! They don't make them anymore... unfortunately. A snowmobile swap meet would probably be the best place to find them at a good price.

Just an FYI, I'm pretty happy with my Simmons skis. In case you might want to look into these. Another thing is that alot of OEM parts are actually more expensive than aftermarket. The Skidoo skis might cost more than the Simmons, unless you can find used.

I believe the Simmons Flexi-ski is what comes with the new skidoos. At least the pic on their site looks exactly like the skis on my 02 mxz.

They are the same design but not the same ski. My buddy has an 02 mxz with the skidoo dual carbide skis. They're almost the same, but skidoos do not have the flex in the front. The grab bar on the front of the simmons ski slides back and forth in a bracket on the ski for added flex. And simmons is a little wider. But they are both good skis. If you can find one cheaper than the other I see no reason to spend more.
