The bottom one I do know is a new arv 106 with the new wedge wall construction which is absolutely so badass btw
 
Line is making the pandora unisex and making leghts from the 140s-180s. Some of the reckoners are getting a refresh. The pontoon is making a comeback. More to come.

Isn’t the Pandora very similar in shape/construction to the old Sick Days? Someone correct me if I’m wrong but I loved those skis.

Cool to see the 106 get an update after 4 seasons, but hope they don't change the weight and stiffness too much. These were pretty unique skis in its category, would hate to see it become soft and heavily rockered like many others amongst the all mountain twins.

Just glad the smeartech is going away. Personally can't stand any ski with angulated tips, all it does is have the ski get deflected easier when charging.

Bacon 122. There's gonna be a mid season release for it, we didn't get any though since fat pow skis don't sell super well in Breck.

Also gonna be a new park ski in the zero collection from Armada next year, pro model for one of their riders. BUT WHO?!

It has to be Quinn or Torin. Armada doesn't really have anyone else who is pro model tier athlete.

Are pigs flying? Look actually is updating the pivot heel?

Yeah I haven't seen it yet but apparently going to have a more replaceable brake instead of having to replace the whole baseplate assembly.

Granted I'm not crazy fond of that idea since we sell a shit ton of baseplates haha

Ya it’s more pricey but pivot brakes are super easy to swap if you have the plate.

Nothing major but a metal insert in the pole spot and slightly longer overall.

Its kimbo ;) he got new pro strangers on his feet in hintertux

The tail may be a different shape than the tip, but it's not really like a stranger looking at the rocker profile. Much more balanced
 
Talked to the salomon Snowboard rep and Salomon marketing manager in our Shop and he told me it will take a lil bit longer till the ,,freestyle project „ (sidehit) get dropped.

so that means no new fun buttery salomon Ski for 24/25 :(

Who has info on the Salomon sidehit? I think sleepy has been riding it for a while now, seems like that ski has been in development forever but I’m pretty sure it’s supposed to drop in fall 24

I hope they continue to build the hype on these skis by funding Sleepy's projects. We want BPC 3 in Dubai and a street part in Asia (maybe they'll fight even harder than in the US).

You'd hope so but Salomon is a trail running brand now. Even in the winter you have to dig into their site to find ski gear
 
Yeah would be nice, asked them why they stackin up a nice team with creativ and stylish skiers (sleepy, sami ortlieb etc) and dont drop the final product but at company view they dont think the skis are ready to be shown to puplic in the next year. And a bpc 3 would be sick

There is no money to earn in wintersports for Salomon anymore.

Other brands (Armada Atomic) in the same Big Concern (Amer Sports) to it way better and have a better Rep by the younger generation.

Salomons best time is long gone it was like 2006/2010 ish.

they choose to be a Running brand. Whats the reason to drop everybody from the freestyle Team back in the day.

They are the biggest boot brand in the USA so far this season. Salomon are making a lot of money selling products to the average skier.
