1080 GUN aka pocket rocket

well why do you think they don't race anymore?

i like the idea of the triplets but i think they should come with integrated bindings. from what i understand theire made for urban so if you can trash one you can just pic up another and keep going or just rotate to proling the life but without 3 bindings their worthless in my mind

this is a good thread because it thought i was the only one. I've never thrown a backflip on skis but i used to do gainers off the diving board and backflips on tramps the one day i just didn't have the balls I don't know why. So now I just throw lincoln loops off a everything like they're...

I've been using pocket rockets for a few years. Just sold em to get the new 1080 GUN. 175 length and 90 underfoot works great for me. they're pretty soft and flexible but I'm west coast so I like em. East coast you'll probably want something stiffer.

no ... stupid huh?

I'd go with the foils. The guns and scratch bc are powder skis so you don't need those. I say foils because I like salomon but the pe will be stiffer if thats what you want

if you got some old skis go for it. I did it to a pair just for urban shit would't use em on the mountain though. Boil the tail for 15 minutes the find anything to wedge it under and bend I pulled my truck tire over it with the ski out to the side the put the nose on a chair and left it there...

big tricks to rails are probably the sickest thing I have seen in the park. I've seen a few people do tricks I cant even land normally land them on a rail plus or minus 90 degrees or course.

yeah it depends on the ski and how you ski. the only way i would go true center is for a park only ski. an inch or so back will still spin easyand feel a little more natural on the grooomers. In powder i would keep the mount at reccommended to keep your tips up so your not on your heels unless...

I don't know about construction but the new bc is 98 mm waist wider than last year

some kid asked what he should do with the ski bladeshis dad gave him, return, use, sell etc. Veteran responded: "Wear them in the parking lot to protect your boots."

says who? some of these yo0ung punks who have never skied them but hate em because it is cool to hate em

I'm a solomon loyal and yeah I admid that color is gay. But I like the new graphics. Simple and sweet. The new salomon lineup is awesome if you ask me. The foils are sick the Gun is the pocket rockets which have been in my mind the best twin tip powder ski for a while.

well i tell ya what if they were off duty cops which isnt the case at my mt. they would have to catch me. I might race to the bottom and change shirts or something. Most of the guys at my place are older colleges students grad students and their cool

yeah one din forward what the fuck. I whould only center mount skis that i only use in the park otherwise reccommended is usually fine.

I don't smake anymore for other reasons, but I wasn't a huge fan of skiing high not bad though. Now that I don't smoke I'm all about carrying a flask of Jack at all times on the mountain. As long as you don't get totally sloshed it is like liquid balls

oh yeah I'm about 5'7 145

I like shorter skis for the most part. In the park they are lighter and easier to spin. Just keep em waxed and you'll still be faster than people with skis 10=15 cm longer who don't know how to take care of their shit. I ride 161 1080s and 175 pocket rockets

just mount them at the factory reccommended, they are designed and tested so for the bindings to be mounted that way. Thats why skis that are made for park are closer to center and powder skis are usually a little farther back. Most of the hard core powder skis aren't even twins and their...
