Alright seeing as theres just an absolutely ridiculous amount of rockered skis coming out next year theres a load of people stoked upon picking some up, myself included. Seems like every company has at least a pair or two that fall into this category, and figured we might make a thread that compiles all of them, so i'll do my best with this list and just add on and say which ones your gettin boners over.

Armada
ARG and JP vs Julien

Alright, add any i missed and discuss, personally i think the bibbys sound sick, havent heard too much about the chopstick but they do look damn fun too
 
It says right under the pic in sia

"EHP. Ski has completly changed. Now comes in a 179, 186, 193. All sizes have rockered tip and tail"
 
holy shit hellbents are sick as fuck and looks like moment skis is pickin it up quite a bit. glad to see them out there. looks like im gonna definetly be grabbin hellbents or ep pros.
 
it seems to me they would be less of a jib ski and more of a west-coast-one-ski-quiver type of ski. but if you can yank 'bents around in the park then they should pose no problem.
 
^^The S7, by Steve Caballero. Rockered with reverse-sidecut at the tips and tails (145-115-123).

^and no, ep's are still one size
 
I rode the Lord today heres a brief review

30 degree bowl fresh snow. great, lots of flotation though it has really minimal rocker.

chopped up snow, a bit of work quite sluggish.

fresh corduroy, like gs turns, difficult to get a short radius turn

verdict. Ok, should really be more responsive for a narrowish ski, I find short turns easier on a Maiden, 6/10. So many better skis for next year.
 
i dont really like the look of the new ep pros adn bacons they are dull loooking compared to last years, but i would still ride them
 
I saw the Chopsticks on the hill yesterday, and it had minimal amounts of rocker. Not even close to Hellbent rocker.
 
That other super limited armada i think is rockered too. the Alpha I or something. rockered park ski
 
The recurve is kind of different. Its kinked at the boot centre and then flat tip to tail. Its more like reverse camber, but without the camber.
 
there might be some more rockered planks art moment next year.... (cough cough....)

anyway M1 comes in a rocker version too
 
get this! the s7 has a very nice big front rocker leading up to the toe and a not as big tail rocker, sick on pow and in grommers and crud, the rocker is placed so the normal camber can still give a turning radius of 18m.

so very versatile.

Im buying them, so so so stoked
 
well technically neither are the EP pros......the EP pros and the SFB's have "early RIse" according to next years catalog, its just there way of being different and not calling it rocker
