[telestar6]

Check out the skis he was rockin at the K2 Back 9. They have the Sir Francis Beacon graphics but they are way wider.

[meggles]

haha i didnt notice that before....wow his skis are massive...

 

[seemeski]

oh my

 

[pbandj]

those sure aren't sfb's those look like they're like 130 or 140 underfoot

 

[JockinJLoads]

they are prob the 150s with a diff topsheet

 

[lineskier106]

sweet jesus

 

[Luc.]

those are def. not the 150s...i would be really surprised if they were...but i think they are just a wider version of the sir. francis bacons, made for eric

 

[attitashfreestyle29]

for all of you to lazy to click the link

 

[Holte]

whoah. Seems like they would actually be really hard to ride.

 

[LDuggan420]

he rides rediculous stuff

 

[MarkieR]

some of those pictures look soo cool.

 

[highSPEEDchase]

What are the sir francis bacons, never heard of those before.

 

[highSPEEDchase]

^nevermind i found some online

 

[pbandj]

nah the 150's have a huge sidecut, those look like prophets with an eliptical sidecut, i say like 130 135 area

 

[r.w]

ypur correct i think that they are te new prophets. he wouldnt use the sfbs for that becasue they are way to flexible.

 

[garrett.]

he has salomon bindings

 

[[lineskier]820]

they are sir francis bacon graphics but they look wider

 

[bmxican_89]

those are definately the sir francis bacon graphic though. im 100% sure about that.

 

[Beamer12]

so huge..must be mad hard to get used to .its like a snowboard on each foot

 

[telestar6]

They aren't prophets either though. They have a sidewall not a cap like the prophets. I'm guessing they are just a wider version of the SFB.

 

[tahoeskier170]

ya cuz line bindings suck and salomon are the best bindings made. and i dont think that they look that wide, but mabe its just me

 

[tahoeskier170]

nevermind they look huge after a couple looks

 

[brennanmidwest]

did they discontinue the line bindings?

 

[Scolson]

 

[tahoeskier170]

i dunno but he barley ever rode them. and all the park guys ride different bindings too.

^^ jesus those things are big

 

[dbag37]

yep, they were too expensive to produce/make better for the money and demand they were going for

 

[mattster]

 

[sampsihoyos]

those are huge skis

 

[gaberaham]

those look as big as the fattypus

 

[skodeo7]

holy balls...has pollard gone too far???

 

[MarkieR]

i'd say yes ^

 

[FUUUCK]

this just in.... pollard rides fat skis!!!1111omgomg

 

[bp.lando]

Sir Francis Bacon with a 150mm waist. must be doing some r&d out there

 

[=nick=]

916's

 

[linds-o-rama]

has anyone tried the volkl sumos? i really want to, but i think riding something that fat would make me trip over my own feet.

 

[SirFryanator]

sweet jesus those are fat/phat. He said that he did like his skis like snowboards, though.

 

[270oUt]

WOW those...wow

 

[table_top08]

mmm bacon

 

[*DrewT*]

no... no he hasnt. I would love a pair of those

 

[SirFryanator]

well if the general public gets these line will have but pollards good enough so he hasnt gone too far for himself

skiing progresses every season

 

[jayamait]

me too

 

[BillyGoatMan]

he's been riding 150 waist prototypes

 

[TMswitch06]

dude pollards the man, i love how he just chills, does his own thing, and doesnt worry about comps

 

[freezed]

Pollard has been riding 150mm waist skis for years, thats nothing new.

And, Telestar, Pollard's prophets are sidewall, not cap.

 

[ski_cartel]

those are fricken hudge

 

[alpineplease]

what are you all talking about. considering 10 percent of you guys own pow skis, you would realize that the ones pictured arent that fat. the 130s look around that size, so i would assume they are just stock bacons. wehn you see bacons in your shop you will realize what the fuck your eyes set on is a fucking humongous acid trip 'where the wild things are' ski

 

[jizack]

back in the day people were making the super dragons with the line ostness dragon skis. they would take two pair cut each ski down the middle and make one pair of skis. it was crazy
