you never know with nike...a couple of years they started making skate shoes and signed paul rodriguez among others and now they are a major player in the skate industry
if they really want to make skis, they can. chances are they have enough money to lure skiers from other companies to build a team and whatnot
freeskiing is becoming a lucrative prospect, they could cash in

I think you are safe. If they do get into skiing, they will buy a company and use it to produce a product line for them, much like Quiksilver bought Rossi and then started using them to produce their Roxy Skis.

golf, basketball.
NKE will push skate apparell, accesories shoes, and then maybe move into boards....very tenatively.
then snowboard apparell, eyewear(addidas remember) and maybe boots, then bindings and boaards.....
freeskiing is super super super low on the totem pole. 2 years is way to quick.
all just speculation, but I think pretty accurate.

I could see them turning into another oakley with a bunch of soft goods but I think skis are a long way off.

legit brobrah, nike isn't going to manufacture skis or any other hardgood anytime soon. they already technically own the rossignol group so they really have no need to manufacture nike skis. however, I can see more skiers/riders for rossi/dynastar sporting quiksilver and nike outerwear in the coming years.

YOur safe betting no twin tips. But in the coming years or even by the next olympicsi think we will be seeing Nike as more of a player in the ski industry. They have already begun making all kinds of new technology for Bode Miller, including his race outerwear. I woulndt be surprised to see nike purchase, create, or liscense a Ski Company. Although there is a lack of independent companies that prodouce race skis now, i think it's only fischer, and stockli.

the ski would come out with a whole new revolutionary technology of pnewmatic skis.
as you approach the jump, all you do is press a buton and the ski automatically in the blink of an eye raises the top sheet from the base (while still connected) to get you that extra pop.
that shit would be tight
