There is a reason that all of Dynastar's freeride pros have left the company for better, more innovative teams. Dynastar hasnt changed its park or pow shape since the trouble makers, its a shame really
David Wise used to ski for Dynastar? Dynastar/Rossignol have been making a habit of not renewing contracts with their team riders. My guess is that David Wise (if he was on rossi/dynasar) was out of a ski sponsor and went with 4frnt.
i rode troublemakers for ages and huge troubles for 2 years and i always thought they were the best skis out... until i finally got on a pair of k2's! ride the huge for a day then ride the bent for a day and you'll see that dynastar is slacking on their pow jib ski!!! they got the shape down, if they just made that shit a little wider and put way more bend in there they would have the perfect ski!!! nobody wants a slightly early rise jib ski... you gotta have that bend or you'll be punchin forward or flippin backward on all your landings!
Lange boots are super sick. Love Langes and will most likely get them again when I get new boots. Too bad they didn't show more of the new boots. I wouldn't touch Dynastar skis though, they seem a bit behind the times. When it comes to skis Atomic is the best game in town right now. Can't wait for the Atomic SIA update.
You would probably be surprised. APO probably is paying close to or the same or else sammy probably wouldn't have left. also sammy is now the face of that company or at least the skiing side and on Salomon he was just another ride basically. Salomon probably didn't listen to their athletes to much as far as advice for making the skis better cause they have been basically the same for the last few years, the skis also have a reputation for falling apart really easily and just being shitty park skis. With APO sammy would get to make the ski he wants and they would listen to the feedback he gives.
it was only this year that Dynastar made the distorter a rockered tip and tail all mtn park ski. If you have never skied it, I heavily suggest it. I have skied on a dynastar every season since the first trouble makers with the monster eyes, and this is the best year of the ski.
