2011 gear

i think he meant send him the watch lifes you didn't like not the lizzies?

anyway I think Line has fucked up this year dropping the Lizzy, Anthem and Chronic. They now seem to only have the afterbang shape in their park line and not everyone wants that shape of ski. Also not everybody trusts that construction.

I genuinely won't know what to do about park skis after my next round of Lizzies. Tempted to buy a backup pair at the end of the Season.

Also Lizzies and EP pros are the only two Line Skis I've ever actually wanted. And there are a good load of alternatives to the EP Pro, but the Lizzies were in a niche of their own. Bad move Line..
 
I agree with everyone on here, Line really dropped the ball next year. I own Lizzies & was thinking about selling but not anymore. Next years graphics also are just plain terrible I think. Usually like Pollards designs but man o man, barf on next years EP's/SFB's.
 
its 17m sidecut

two years ago went through a pair of lizzies in 140 days

last year got another pair off warranty (LINE IS THE SHIT) spent 160 days on them

this year they are getting a little beat up, a couple inches edge just tore out under foot :(

such a solid ski, they've taken a beating and held up so so well.

i want them to last all this year and into next year, but if not, i would 100% buy another pair. or buy anthems, but since NEITHER will be available wtf do i do? k2's seem like a similar option, ive just never liked the flex as much. lizzies have that smooth super soft flex through the whole ski. where most other brands have the stiff center and then softer tips and tails. plus nobody really puts that much sidecut in their skis like Line does.

and that goddamn step-up ski, wtf is that? that doesn't replace the

anthem, its just an afterbang thats seems to be better for big jumps

and halfpipe. narrow skis suck, i want a symmetrical or almost symmetrical parkish ski thats 100-110 underfoot and has a ton of sidecut.

i want to see the official lineup of Line's skis w/ dimensions and all so i can stop worrying. i hope there's something for people who love the lizzie

 
Ye i used to ride athems and now im not sure what i going to do now. who knows, maybe i'll like skinnier park skis. I can tell you theyve got the EP Pro, EP Pro Shorty, SFB, Blend, Chronic, Setup, Afterbang
 
Actually dude I'm pretty sure its a 15.5 meter radius.

That said.. there is no replacement for the Lizzie. I'd get another pair while you still can. I'm thinking of buying a pair now and another pair in the end of season sales for when I fuck up the new pair.
 
The lizzies are a fun ski. But being 6'4", 200 and riding them is rather sketch. If that ski was longer i'd buy a pair in a heart beat.
 
ooops, yeah your right it is 15.5m.....damn FIS slalom skis are 12-12.5

i need to get some money for another pair, skiing the lizzie makes all other skis just seem boring
 
eye spy an all white full tilt. Thanks for listening guys! Dye job craziness is about to ensue!
 
i totally agree with you, and i would love to see an all white boot for men, but idk if there is a big enough market for them
 
The Elizabeth is going to become like Full Tilts. Everyone is going to hoard them up while we can and sit on them till Line decides to make them again.
 
those grey boots under the seths look different. its hard to tell from the pic, but looks like the buckles are different from the other FT's.
 
micro adjustable buckles? So......dalbello ripped off the full tilt(raichle) design and now it looks like FT has a dalbello krypton looking boot? interesting. OR...i could just be an idiot trying to look too close at an internet pic
 
Oh yeah i think you're right, it looks like 3 buckles but the one at the bottom is in a similar position to the krypton... interesting
 
ive got a feeling those could be something totally new...

1. no cables

2. power strap goes all the way around, not under the plastic

3. extra something between the bottom two buckles

4. bottom buckle is much lower than other FTs

5. boot shape looks different (especially in the fore-foot)
 
i think the bottom buckle is just further down, i dont think the middle one is a buckle
