    k2 fucking kicks ass

    Companies that obey - even stretch - their warranties are to be commended. All skis are going to have some degree of failure, and the company should stand behind it and give you new product. There are stories of abusers (we don't know any, of course) that ski 'em for a season and WHACK -...

    BODE MILLER

    Bode's skis get pre-tuned at the factory, site-tuned in the trailer at the event or practice site, and race-tuned on the snow just before race. In fact he will bring 5 pair of identically site-tuned skis to the race, and have them tuned slightly differently to account for changing conditions...

    WTF is Liberty Skis

    Ok, that's cool. Put your ideas where your mouth is (or something like that). Where do I/we send these graphics ideas? To spinx? To 'james'? How do we know you won't just rip off the coolest shit? I do have to say that I like the vibe he's laying down.

    how bad are 1080s ?

    It's the foam core that sucks. They may be fine on the rails (I have not skied them) but that would be about it. After about 2 weeks, you will give up on them.

    new skis (Dilemma)

    Justo is right about 4FRNT. Those guys, Liberty, and maybe, maybe Armada are thinking about their customers.

    Whats better anyway??

    I think the Armadas are all plastic feeling. I like the 4FRNTs and the Liberty skis. I don't much like last year's graphics, but I do like the construction and the new prototypes that I have seen in Canada and in Colorado. I think the PE de-lam is a big problem. The good news is that there's...

    liberty skis

    Lame graphics indeed, but saw NEXT year's and they look sick. Well. . . I only saw one model ... a big fat ski. And it looked sick. So given that the skis are awesome construction, if Liberty can get some cool art, then I will give them another try. I give 'em credit for getting knocked down...

    2004 Motherships or Pollards

    Where and when can I find the Liberty C-Notes? I was up in Whistler last week and rode up with a guy that had the protos. They're s'posed to be even better than the mothers or the pollards.

    LINE SUCKS

    Line skis don't suck. In fact there are a few awesome models that they make. The company, however, appears very, very stuck on itself. I'd go so far as to say that they have a pretense of greatness. Basically they've drunk their own Kool-Aid and now think their shit don't stink. Some of...

    Oakley SKIS!?

    It's actually plausible. I read somewhere that Oakley was going to be the next investor in the Karhu/Line complex but it fell through. If that's true, Oakley's interest in extending the brand is more a 'when' than an 'if.' That being said, I haven't seen any Oakley skis.

    LINE SUCKS

    You're right about the ice. They suck on ice. Line actually has one or two good models, but the firm is so stuck on itself that nobody wants to be associated with them. The Armadas fall apart, and the Liberty skis are awesome skis with shit gay graphics (new ones are supposed to be better)...

    liberty skis

    Those graphics above sort of stink. The cans are ok, but the stars are gay. The new ones that I saw kick the crap out of those old graphics. Maybe they had to use crap graphics because of Karhu/Line. The one's that Liberty is making on their own will be sooooo sick. Now if I can get my job...

    Liberty Skis

    The model I saw will be at least 10 wider than last year, and the graphics won't suck (if they;re smart enough to keep the one from the prototype). They'll be cheep too I heard (at least for pro price). Glad they lost that Line connection.

    keeping your skis safe from thieves

    Stealing skis is really low. Really really low.

    that's cool - I'm sick to death of those damn big box stores. I hate them - especially Fart Bros and Shorts Authority.

    Liberty Skis is Online

    The guys above are right - the graphics are really gay, but I rode up witha guy who was a rep or sponsored or something, and the skis were so sick - big and fat and different from anything I had seen. He told me that the 'old' Liberty skis were made at Karhu in canada, but they're moving on...

    What the hell is a Jibij? And can I get them for only a c-note? haha

    Liberty Skis

    I rode up with a guy in Vail who said he was sponsored or something or was a friend of one of the owners and said that the prices this year will be cool. Since they're making their own skis now, they don't have topay Karhu anymore which was too expensive and too derivative of Line. Anyway, the...

    Liberty skis

    That guy was right. I was told that they used the Karhu plant for their first batch, but left them when they got all uppity. They make their own now in the USA and have some cool looking fat skis and twins coming out. I rode up in Vail with one of their testers or sponsored guys or something...

    liberty skis

    Saw prototypes of the Liberty Skis new wide skis. The new graphics are sick, which is good because the old graphics were awful. Also heard that the new twin tips are a better rider design model. They have severed ties with those Kreepy Karhu guys I heard.
