this is prolly old news but, saw him today riden lib techs at baker. and talk to a rep about it a week ago. the skis look dope.
 
That's pretty sick if it's true...they have some crazy edge ideas with the swivelly pattern thing...it's pretty cool if it works.
 
So basically Wilson is riding for Burton. Lib Tech/GNU were bought out by them last year. I'm all for it. If it means more progression in ski design, bring it on.
 
lib tech is owned by mervin wich is owned by quicksilver. where did you get that burton story. i dont think burton owns any other companys, unless you cound red, anon, analog, and gravis.
 
My bad. Burton bought so many companies last year I got it all screwed up. Transworld Business says you're right.
 
wilson needs to stop being a pro skier. did anyone see him in tbc? worst skiing of the year. any moron could huck themselves like that
 
^^wilson is amazing. people knock his skiing but he keeps progessing this sport better than anyone. lib tech is a good move, he will be there top skier. not only can he ski, hes a business man and he smart about it
 
are you kdding, his corks are sick,

and he only flailed a bit on tricks that where just plain larger than everone else.
 
haha, you're funny, i still don't like how tehy disown skiing

here's a quote from lib-tech aboot their skis: “We’ll always be a snowboard company, but we threw this design out there to the ski world to get them thinking and expand people’s awareness.”
 
i say until you have progressed this sport as much as wilson has then dont talk shit....Wilson mayb not b the best but he sure is up there....and he has a kick ass attitude andpersonality as well
 
Sage can kind of have a gangly style every now and then, yet there isn't much question that he's a dope skier. so what if Wilson flailed a little- i bet you NEVER do that. he's sponsored, you're not, Mr. Jealousmanguy.

i wouldn't put it past him or any other skier who is searching for a contract to try out many different skis, so it might just be too early to say he's with anyone. as was said, he's a businessman, so he's probably looking around at all his options.
 
yeah, anyone knocking on wilson is an idiot, he consistently takes tricks bigger than anyone except maybe candide, and his double cork over the superpipe gap was super smooth and sick.
 
he snowboards a lot also, so maybe he liked their snowboards, and got the skis also in one deal.
 
Mike Rips and while being a little different he is actually a nice guy. and he is hand down one of the most underrated skiers out there, he is acutally not a bad big mountain skier and can throw down some big tricks, his doubles are crazy that one over the pipe in tbc like fuck thats soo gnar , big deal if he flails on occasion hes hitting a 100 foot gap lets see u do that and not kill your self let alone flail fag..
 
500 per ski!!! holy fuck....but i think i know someone who still might get a pair cuz he is nuts(one of my bosses at the hill)
