ORRRRRR you could go with the ones that fit you better.

Does anybody remember that saying... what is it?

FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION!
 
I saw these today, definatly not twin tips, although they are not flat tail neither, it does have a slight upward curve for the tails. The guy was probably testing them, he had those skis, with those bindings and maybe next years ace of spades? (i heard the look was the same so i can't conclude that they were this years model)
 
Its looked like a great ski, nice and stiff, awesome sidecut. looked like it has the same core and sidewall construction

Will it have the same specs as the alpha two? does anyone know? i think the video talks about them, anyone have an idea?

Thanks

dont have pics, but armada has a jacket next year that's kinda like the purple one above but it's a really light baby blue with a yellow/green, it's pretty sweet.
 
the ace of spades for next year is the same dimensions and construction as this years, but different graphic, they lok so sick, they match the ace of spades boots, so if u have seen pics of the boot, the graphic is really similar.
 
Im glad i got this years JJ's because the ARMADA on the base of next years JJ's are ugly and the topsheet isn't quite as appealing. Im disappointed by the ARG. The ski looks thinner with a narrow tail like the pontoons. If I wanted pontoons I'd buy them from K2
 
I do believe K2 no longer has the extreme. The silencer next years appears to have the same sidecut and construction as the extreme, so I am guessing they are just changing the name. Idk what those sick blue and purple ones are though.
 
Once I get some Rockers, my next skis are either going to be the Halos, AR6s, or T-Halls. Probly the Halos. They all look so sick.
 
totally disagree i think ARMADA in the base looks sick next year. reminds me of like old wild west cowboy writing or something idk haha...i think its a lot cooler then the usual ARMADA writing.
i think they should make a longer alpha 1 or halo or whatever....like 188 or something. all those skis are kinda sketch for anybody over 6 foot cause the running length is so short, but i really like the short turn radius, rocker and everythign else about the ski.
 
Haha yes I am stupid and retarded because I like to support core companies that will live and die with freeskiing. Last time I checked Moment, Surface, Armada, and ON3P ONLY make skis for freesking purposes. And they design them around what real freeskiers want. K2, like rossi, salomon, volkl, elan, ect, all joined the freeskiing movement for one reason. To make money. They honestly don't give a shit about the sport other than the fact that they know that its more money they can make. If you ask me your the one being MENARD now.
 
It would be safe to jump right to it and assume you are saying K2 doesn't make skis "designed around what real freeskiers want". Example: Hellbent. There were a couple rockered joints around before them, but rocker did not catch on until Pep and Andy started slaying shit on a clearly superior ski design. Every other company still wants to make that ski without making that ski. You seen the wack angled multiple rocker profiles and 5 points of sidecut? Shit is petty. Bents are the best skis ever made. I'm not going to waste any more time typing responses to your foolishness when you are clearly out of your element. Menard.
 
I hope those orange K2's aren't the Hellbents, cause they don't really look like too good. Or at least nothing like the Hellbents I'm used to seeing.
 
Oh my bad, i meant the ace of spades boots, I heard they were the same graphics but i guess i heard wrong?

Anyways, the skis are awesome, actually go back a few pages and you will see them.
