***Live Q&A Session With Jason Levinthal From Line Skis***

Ah, yes. I found out today that the island of Vashon is perfectly disconnected from the rest of society to the point that even the people at Subway don't realize that they are supposed to make weak subs and not care about the food they make. Luckily they have never been to other locations off the island.
 
In the 11 years of Line's existance what has been the absolute highlight for you? What about the worst moment (if it's not too personal)?

Pressing factory and HQ in Washington aside, what else will Line and K2 be sharing? Will you keep your own staff for graphics/ski design etc and will Dan Gestwick (in charge of binding) be moving to Washington, in fact, has he even been working for you this year?
 
Jay, I have one question for you that will tell me everything I need to know about you. Which was better, He-Man or Thundercats?
 
Line is everywhere all of the time. under your bed, in your closet, at your mountain, in your shop, on your computer, but the office where we answer phones and type emails is no longer in Burlington
 
im a total believer in the 3 piece shell boot design ever since i had a pair of transfers back in 03. im currently riding Dalbellos, and since k2 owns that brand, is there any chance that we will see a unique, line branded jib boot? Dalbello has the Krypton Rampage, but nothing ive come across has been more jib friendly than those boots. the ability to adjust the rear lock made manuals and butters worlds more comfortable, and with the exception of the shit buckles, were the best jib boots ever. (thats the only reason im not still in um, maybe ill rebuild um)
 
Have you ever french kissed Eric Pollard? If so is he better than Mike Nick? And where in the world are Gagnon and Mithoefer (sp??)
 
i just wanted to say that i love the company, i feel like line is trying to help me ski rather than help themselves drive a bentley, i always feel like the customer is first. i was going to ask if i was still going to be able to warranty my invaders through getboards, but i now realize its a stupid question. thanks for being the coolest person in the ski industry.
 
more operational support and improvement which is difficult to explain because its all the business work you don't see on the outside clearly. more ability to innovate more product, cooler graphics, expand product, deliver on time, etc. etc.
 
couple questions J:

1) will this effect Lines warrenty at all?

2)Whats your sign?

3)Are you gonna be sponsering more Pros, and haveing them enter in more big name competitions? (i.e. masters)

4) everyone wants to know...boxers or breifs.
 
on the invader graphic, there is a chick on the tail with a belt. would i be correct if i said she is not wearing any pants? ive spent countless hours on the chair lift trying to figure this out and i need to know.
 
oh yeah, you guys dont have of those hangin around do yah? size 29.5? ill snatch um in a second. my old ones are a tad to big
 
Burlington took away my spot this year thats why its not out. I need you to find another location for to keep the Chronic Cheesteak alive YO!
 
What % of the Burlington crew will be making the move to Washington with you?

Did you approach K2 first or vice versa?

How long ago did you start talking with them about this deal?
 
People can be pissed

In a scenario where we're not making enough money to support what we're doing we'll be out of business in either scenario.

Freeze, Line and any other company in the world need sales to support their investments into what they do. That is the reason you support the companies that support you no matter who owns them, where they are located and how large or small they are. If you want them to continue what they're doing then support their cause...they support yours.
 
totally, I just bought some Chronic Wides, and am wondering whether you will still validate warranty in case of delammination???
 
Highlight was today, participating in Line's first day with its new owner knowing that it was in good hands.

The worst was all of the times we tried something new, failed, but kept going without ever really knowing what the future held.
 
1 warranty the same as always bring to your shop and they'll work with us to take care of you.

2 December

3 in time

4 boxers
 
you need to email our graphics guy timc@lineskis.com that one. I would guess no pants have fun on the next chair ride
 
that comment just lost you a customer.

haha im kidding man, ill still buy a shirt or two.

Did you know that for the last two years, ive been wearing line shirts for gym class?
 
JLEV: how do you foresee growth in the freeski industry? Is it maxed out? Furthermore, how has the presence of a plethora of new ski companies in the marketplace affected your business? In other words, is the pie itself still getting bigger, or are everyone's slices getting smaller and smaller?
