2014/2015 gear thread

What you described is pretty much what you will get. Look at the tech binding market and see what is selling. It's things like the radicals. That is where the money is. Things like the beast are great but they are not big sellers yet. So if you want to break into the market it makes much more sense to start with a more established product with an already established target market.

Making a a product for the masses will allow salmon and atomic to make good inroads Into dynafits market and also create some new customers. From there they are in a much better position to release just the type of binding you want. But you don't start with that niche product you start wit what will be the best seller.

DIN release, brakes, lightweight yet strong, quick riser and locking system that is easy to use.

If it gets all of that they have a winner..but since you said pretty much I'm affraid something will not be there ;)

I really like what Salomon and Atomic did the last few years, but I really dont like the Guardian/Tracker. Hope they step it up a bit..

Well nothing is final yet as far a I'm aware. It's not for this season it's an ispo 15 product so things can change but I think this could be the biding tht really opens the door to tech bindings just as the duke did for freeride bindings. No the duke was not the first but it was the one that really braught that style of binding to the publics attention. I think the atomic/salmon tech binding will be the same.

As for the guardian I think it got a lot right. They ski great but maybe could hav been a little burlier.

yep, EVERYBODY wears armada. EVERYBODY. stop kidding yourself with stupid comments you think are witty, they're not.

Seriously dude just get the fuck out. Who cares what other people wear? If you don't like it that's fine. Buy something else. No one gives a shit about what you think. Like don't you live in Switzerland? Can't you find something cool to do because hating on ski companies is super lame. Saga's the shit they have been hooking people up with free shit and great prices for almost 10 years. Probably longer than you have actually been skiing. And your pictures show you geared up with matchy matchy Armada and Full Tilt to take your high and mighty bull shit the fuck out of here.
