I've heard rumors that in Pollard's footage in Push/Pull his skis appear to be Bacons but they are really more an Ep Pro prototype. It's deceiving, I can't tell if they are bacon fat or EP Pro fat.. So does anyone know where the truth is? The man has like 4 pro models and has had many prototypes.

I got the season withdrawal disease, so watching movies seems to help.
 
I know armada is big on having riders use prototype skis with the wrong graphics. Also k2 does alot of stuff with the madens. I'm not sure about line though
 
yeah i know what you mean...there was one shot where he kinda hit a little kicker and jibbed a big tree branch and the ski looked realllyyy fat for the Bacon
 
well said^^

and i didn't know he had 150 lizzies, i thought that was the prophet. which btw were for sale on ebay a few months ago with a black topsheet, and black and white line stencil on the bottom.
 
alright, I'm 90% sure now it isn't the real bacons, cause my bacons look tiny now after watching pull. Eric must be on the EP PRO PRO PRO haha
 
there is a shot in there where you can definitely tell it has early rise... aka a EP Prototype.

And yeah the tree pow jib.. those have to be 150's.

Pollard has so many prototype skis/switched graphic skis its redic.
 
haha, i know hes got soo many pro-models and shit...line should have more pro skiers than just pollard
 
This is a way somewhat true. the Last couple years line has been experimenting with early rise. Im sure last year they had Eric riding a protoype of the ski to work out the kinks. Companies do this alot. Simon Dumonts pro model is a prime example the whole time they were constructing his ski he had the top sheet be SPK's but they were prototypes of his acutal ski
 
armada did the same thing with ar5, t-hall, ar6, and pipe cleaners at alot of pipe comps
 
pep and andy and seth all road a ak enemy that was rockered like this years hellbents last season. its visable in alot of the shot in pep and andy's segments in ski porn.
 
i don't now much but im pretty shore that companies make the ski before the graphic so they just use a graphic of a ski the already have so they are promoting that and gives the impression that there are using that ski while testing the new ones for the next season
 
bam bitch

by the way pollard's ski types have been discussed 300 times try the search bar for once, but i know that's atleast the 10th time i've posted that picture, it's a 150 prototype, it's 172 cm has butter butter zones, so no it's not a prophet just a really really fat version of the elizabeth
 
well i just watched push and they are def. no the sfb's cause there alot fatter, but i didn't notice any rocker in them (as the EP Pro's have)
 
Why?

Look at what Pollard has done for them, since they put him in charge of the line-up they've had the most progressive ski designs in the industry...there's no way they should change that, ever.
 
It wouldn't change. They can still let Pollard do his thing. But I think if they had more big names on the team it would make line more progressive than it already is (Pollard) and get there name out more.
 
what binders? and i know awhile back when he was in a scott ad he was riding on the ep pros with the smoke, except they were reversed colors and they were the same shape as the elizabeths
 
i don't know what you're talking about, Line is pretty big, does more sales than any other "core" company, unfortunately because of some of the shit products they've made (reactors, 1st year invaders) they've had issues with money because they threw so much cash money into r&d for mainly the reactor, but now that k2 is backing them line can only move forward
 
Word.

Long live LINE, they've always been innovating and pushing our sport, every pair of LINE skis I've owned has been awesome too, super sturdy and just a blast to ride.
