I dont think this question is really regarding professional skiers, so much as what influences your purchase decision.
AKA, j telling everyone "most of you fucks buy whatever's cheaper anyways, so stop grilling me about the changing ownership of my company."
I mean, skiers bitch and complain about our companies not remaining ours, but if we actually fucking supported these companies rather than buying what's cheapest from the least "for the sport" people, they wouldn't have to.
It's not that hard to interpret. Jesus.
