Dumont to armada?

[iggs]

cant telll if this is a troll or actually serious. why would salomon turn away from freeskiing. they've built up so much in the freeskiing world. why the hell are companies turning their backs on skiing. first it was nike 6.0 and now salomon

 

[_steffen_]

yeah well were picking up companies too. ones that dont suck huge ass too. such as north face and lib tech is making more skis now then ever before. salomon skis sucked ass anyway, like shark night 3d they were for no one.

 

[AGOF]

they have torin on their team too

 

[Pastie]

He always wears his oakley suit

 

[razors-chaz]

Why is this thread still going. Does the tweet from simon not settle this argument?

 

[rareison]

Sig'd lol.

 

[moms_favorite]

gay

 

[roddy116]

eh as long as oakley doesnt drop him im totally fine with it.

 

[BmoChop]

We're still speculating who he's gonna end up on now that he is (supposedly) done with salomon.

 

[NEEDMOSNOW]

agreed

 

[Goku]

HE'S SKIING FOR NORDICA NOW!!!

 

[roddy116]

where did you hear that?

 

[Goku]

not hard to find out...

 

[RICK_ROSS]

true. saw it on google+

 

[Toby.Dickson]

actually he's just trying out different skis, he had coreupt's the other day at snowpark.

 

[Iratebeggar]

i seen him the other day at an oakley promo thing up remarkables (close to cardrona) and he didnt have armadas. but he did have some fulltilts and said they where shit.

 

[pow_pow2]

...as far as I know, Salomon dropped there freeskiing team which Dumont was a huge part of and has been contacting Armada for representation. Whether Armada has accepted him is another story.

 

[Pipe_Munky]

i highly doubt that.

salomon in north america dropped their race program several years ago to focus on the freeskiing market. to think that they'd pull a complete 180 after all the time and money invested in their freeskiing program is a little far fetched.

besides, their current team is what got them to where they are today with respect to market share.

 

[Iratebeggar]

Thats not dumont. its Torin Yater Wallace. thats why they are armada skis and a target syymbol....noobs

 

[joshua]

Not to mention they already made a whole new season of Freeski TV.

 

[pretzels]

my buddy said the whole season is about backcountry season, which is where Salomon is headed anyway. not that its a bad thing, just different from park. i bet Bobby and all the hard core backcountry guys stay, more comp/ park athletes are dropped or let go.

 

[sagesnow]

hey noob, its been cleared up that that is in fact dumont via other pictures in the same suit

 

[SLCSKI3R]

I like this.

 

[Iratebeggar]

man i live in NZ, i was there. Thats not dumont

 

[Iratebeggar]

as above

 

[Italian.Stallion]

This is an oakley shoot right? I'm pretty sure that Torin rides for smith...

 

[rudager]

Looks like they'll have an armada of pipe skiers.

 

[DUKES]

simon wears oakley for outerwear

torin wears armada

both are sponsored by target

person in picture is torin end of story

 

[rudager]

I feel like I should have read more than the first page in this thread before I posted.

But if I understand correctly, he was dropped, and is currently in New Zealand meeting with companies? Probably discussing contracts and testing their park skis?

 

[skiRay]

same.. if this is true id be stoked though. it does look like dumonts style in that picture though i have to say

 

[Pugalope]

Your thinking Sammy C the Dumont was rossignol
