?

These are like the first really good set of graphics they've done since 05. 09 skis are looking to be the best year for graphics.
 
First thing that came into my mind. I proclaim it a rip off graphic and give Salomon 200 shame points.
 
compared to graphics of skateboard and snowboard companies, and other ski companies, i feel they're lame.

the Dumont's are the only ones that are alright in my opinion.
 
A buddy of mine is sponsered by salomon, they gave him 09 skis but he can't ride them until they tell him. Kinda gay
 
But as you said "typical salomon" I thought it as a statement about their graphic history, as I think they've been getting better with this year's and now next year's. How ever I say compared to snowboard companies and so on, yeah they need work but have come a long way since 2006's graphic.

(they did this mock up for every ski and just changed the colors between models)

All of them are pretty cool I think, with exeption ot the lord. I'm impatial on the Dumont's so far. Also you have to take in for account that you mostly see these skis on other people from a distance. Try thinking of what they's look like from far away.

 
the 1080 from the Ski movie 3, RFA years were sick, those were some of hte best looking skis, along with the pocket rocket, so i think its unfair to say that all salomon graphics suck, the ones that came out during the year X was released were hideous however. The foils from 2 years ago with teh red white and blue were sick
 
I think those ones that came out during X were sweet actually, atleast from seeing them in magazines and films, they looked pretty sweet. Yeah last year's foils that were red and blue writing over the white were sweet, but that year Salomon basically only had black bases with their name on it in white, something I just hate when companies do (hint armada).
 
i think the salomon graphics arn't very deep this year. They're either not interesting or just using bright colors for shock factor. None of them actually have depth
