2014/2015 gear thread

Man I just want to see all the Solly binders. I have found full comprehensible German coverage of over 100 skis but not a single high res pic of the lineup.
 
New Volkl pow ski called the Three at 150-135-140. Ridiculously rockered.

K2 Recoil is now the Shreditor 92?

Armada have a bunch of new skis but all in the directional freeride part of the line. JJ gets a longer sidecut.

Faction Candide 1.0, 2.0, 3,0.

Does anyone even read the thread? I linked that one, and I linked the one about the new armada ski. Not that I need to claim it but why link stuff 2-3 times. I guess this one is okay though since I didn't get the embed to work. Just talking in general.

Think this is my 100 post though, since 2004. Lurker days are officially over.
 
Do you have a source on that? Armada makes it pretty clear usually that they keep the JJ as it is and make differentiated versions, but if you are right, that would be amazing. The reason I have never bought JJ's in the past is due to the annoyingly short radius.
 
Sorry about that, didn't see an embed video.

200 or so posts since 2003, true lurker style :D! I guess the "new gear" time of the year gets me in a posting mood.
 
If I'm honest, I feel like Moment's graphics have gone downhill compared to the standard of previous years...
 
This cannot be right as they have the fks 140 listed as 6 pounds, unless the beefed up the FKS series I highly doubt that the 12 din is heavier than the 14 din.
 
It's comical how the entire snow industry is just basically walking around Agenda or Magic to try and figure out whatever crap these over saturated streetwear brands are pumping out and then try and sell it to us 18 months later. Their design approach is just is laughable. They always come so late to the game and it will continue to hurt the sports image for just being behind everything else. How are these guys JUST now bringing floral to the table? Right after everyone is over it because of how played it is. Are the designers that out of touch with trend forecasts?

The "Jordan Inspired" Full Tilt is like vomit in my mouth. Right after people have moved on from Jordans almost entirely, and a fully year after Nike runs the IIIs into the ground, this company puts out a half ass elephant print boot with the Red, Black, and Grey colorway? I'm embarrassed that people are even considering wearing those on the mountain in 14/15. It looks like some cheap knockoff item from China. It is corny as fuck.

 
and it is likely that you don't care enough.

cannot believe how out of touch everyone seems to be. it makes me slightly embarrassed to be a skier when people laud the stuff that is being churned out from a design standpoint.
 
It's not your problem, if kids wanna buy this ugly ski gear with floral patterns who cares? Let them look like idiots..
 
Gentleman, I'm pleased to announce... Armada AK JJ 2.0, Magic J & Bubba.

Armada is killin' it! Everything looks impressive and the top sheet updates are clutch.



 
yeah it must be the same ski just changed the name, and made underfoot 92 instead of 90 like the old one.
