    1080 GUN & 1080 FOIL

    The difference between the Pocket Rocket and the Gun is the filling material: PR used a PU foam and the Gun is using PMI (polymethacrylimide hard foam). The flex characteristics of the ski have been kept the same but hopefully the new material will prove to be more durable and not lose its...

    Really good article...

    I liked this paragraph: You’ll find in a couple of years that nobody will crow more loudly about the “true nature of snowboarding,� about the “revolutionary potential of extreme sports,� than the latecomers: the Nikes, the Adidas, the Rossignols, whoever. They want to leave no doubt...

    Where to find a clip of moseley's dinner roll

    Will the REAL Dinner Roll please stand up? The trick he threw in Salt Lake was a corked 7 but the trick he spent a hell of a lot of time practicing (and submitted to FIS for approval) was more of a rodeo/flatspin. By his own admission, he was only 60% successful with the landing and...

    Look vs. Salomon bindings

    There is a big difference between the s900's and the 912's. Mainly, the 912's only use one screw for the toe wing adjustment. This has shown to loosen up (opening the wings), in the past, causing people to eject prematurely. A dab of locktite seems to fix the problem.

    Jon Reedy not a pro skier?

    Thanks for clearing that up John. I read about it a while back (SBC Skier?) but forgot WHO was implicated.

    Skis & Fuct Edges.........warranty's??

    No ski is "designed" for rails. If it were, it wouldn't have metal edges on it to begin with. I do have a problem with ski companies who advertise (in photos) sliding rails knowing full well that duplicating the feat, invalidates the warranty. There should be a disclaimer on the ads.

    Someone explain to me how a skier sells out

    He didn't. He successfully parlayed his status as 1998 Olympic gold medalist into other ventures. Fame is fleeting - capitalize on it while you can. Besides, I don't think any other skier could have come back in 2002 with enough clout and influence to force off-axis spins in mogul comps. His...

    Momentum this summer!

    There is no halfpipe. I just got back from Session 1. HN has a two hit quarterpipe and that's it. Stop misinforming the kid.

    Park building and jumps - backwards progession?

    You forgot to mention that rails ruin more skis than jumps do; And with the kick-backs mountains are getting from the ski companies, it's in their best interest... He he.
