[drwclrk]

Had a minor debacle with a friend...
...anyone know what year Oakley introduced the crowbar? thanks in advance.

 

[xyLis]

4.5 months into 1983.

 

[strongmark]

1973, released in memory of roberto clemente.

rest in peace, may your goggles let your legacy live on forever.

TWO THOUSAND TWENTY

 

[drwclrk]

ya i think it was '05, because i first saw them in Push/other ski movies of that year... which was 4 seasons ago.

 

[Kevski]

Yes. Haha.
Which was 2005. TBC had the first shots of pros with crowbars (Jon at least), and the shots from that season were in the ad campaign for the 2005/2006 season. That's when I first saw them.

 

[Balto]

i remember when i first saw them i said "boy those look gay, ill stick with wisdoms"

 

[Kevski]

Haha I know exactly what you mean. I got A-frames that year instead of crowbars because I thought the crowbars were just weird. Now I own two pair.

 

[Ben.]
