On Surface getting so much play...

all i was trying to point out was that surfaces aren't that "different"...the whole motif/theme of the concept of surface.

i'd say the majority of how a ski rides depends on its dimensions, especailly if two skis are not extremely diff flexes. aren't lizzes and blower more simialr than pipecleaners and blowers?

whatever, i'm sick of debating it. and yes the majority of skis on the market are extremely similar.
 
I think if your applying icy hot to your balls every morning its time to start sacraficing your hienous fashion for function.
 
Surface has never, ever claimed to have some innovative new ski that will suck your balls while you ski. They however do claim that they are just trying to bring something fresh to skiing, just like 9ward is with their cript/blood marketing strategy. It's something new guys, something other than Atomic, Rossi, Dynastar, Solomon...that's it...if you don't like something new than stay in the current stagnant state you are currently existing in.

Regardless, we all need to have AND show respect for companies like Surface & Ninthward because it's damn hard to start a company of kind, let alone manufacturing skis overseas. Those who have the balls and motivation to do it deserve some respect.

Out.

 
it is a joke... if one were to apply icy hot ointment to their testicular region the last thing in the world said person would want to do is go skiing!

it is a pin far greater than any peson should ever have to endure!

my tight pants are pretty warm i rock them on all but the coldest of days!
 
I agree with 50% of your post. Surface is fresh.

9thward is bunk. Terrible customer service and and trust fund do not constitute "balls" or "motivation."
 
respect. i think you guys should try to make that ski though, or at least make a rev camber.

i hope to ride with you guys next year at alta. big ups.
 
why do people on this board fear change in skiing

no poles, omg

tight pants, omg

new grinds, omg

we should accept change because it shows how this sport is growing
 
hey you. too bad ninthward is hooking christopher honeywell and tom mckay up, there pants are anything but baggy...last time i checked ninthward doesn't give a fuck about peoples fashion tastes and looks at the talent of people. surface sponsors people for fashion, what kind of a fucking joke is that?

also ninthward didn't play the blame game at all! i don't know where the fuck you got that from. do you see them trying to back that shit up? no. that's why no one knows about it and claims that they just suck at business!

and surface guys, you always say you don't care what people think about you and how it doesn't matter, well how come every single post every single member of the team backs them up until their fingers are too sore to type.
 
wow you quoted me in your signature....i want my royalties!

surface used ninthward's molds? are you really that naive and believe everything campbell tells you?

how is it that surface used their molds and they were able to deliver skis and the kids who threw down for some sick as fuck ninths are still waiting.....

surface owns the molds for all of their skis... jordan judd created those shapes they are nobody but surfaces!

 
i wear floppy hats holden jackets and jeans when i ski most of the time i dont use poles .....for that hate all you want i dont care what you have to say abbout my style!

my point is surface has done an awesome job at designing building and DELIVERING amazing skis! nobody can take that away or say otherwise!

there is no doubt in my mind they will be around for a long long time! and that we will shortly see a lot of really really good shit that the kids want.
 
surface is gunna be like armada its gunna grow huge and there doing it right and there gunna make amazing skis
 
If that were true then every one of their riders would ski with tight pants. Even then, they don't.

Your argument is based on opinionated bias and with that you have voided yourself.

goo day
 
like voldemort, 9th will rise again. is tomorrow official harry potter day or something? the camp i work it is putting on this huge thing for harry potter
 
Bah Bah mothafukas.

No but seriously, I was considering buying a pair of Thwards or Surfaces this year, both companies I could put my money into. All of this is just making it pointless.

Armada still exists, thank the lord baby jesus above.
 
I gotta say that the more ski companies out there the better. More models, more shapes, more sizes only lead to more unique styles and a truly unique expression of identity on the mountain. I've got to credit both 9th and Surface for stepping into the ring and facing the manufacturing giants with 1/1000th the budget and producing skis with which skiers from all walks of life are hopping on and loving. I have to give Surface some extra credit though for being good to their customers and for getting some sick people. Slandis is sick and Adam Clark is an amazing photographer. These guys are assembling a crew to do some insane things.
 
is this post a joke? Seriously I wouldn't be all that surprised if there was some very strong yet pretty well hidden sarcasm in here because you start off telling people they're just making assumptions about 9th, then instantly go off making the exact same (completly false) assumptions about surface
 
Matt, I like you even though you're tall as hell and i've seen you wearing tight ass home-sewn pants and Airblaster shit. I didn't think you were the type of guy that liked to cause problems either. Enjoy those '89 Vish, and don't let your pals brainwash you too much.

but honestly what does surface have to back themselves with?

so far you've won over NS by acting "core" NS LOVES CORE! and sponsoring Slandis NS LOVES SLANDIS!

lets let the Skis do the talking, all the surfaces I saw on the hill were breaking, and you guys weren't warrantying them
 
you've been riding your todom pole pretty hard lately...

And i've been hearing somthing about and that Surface maybe decided to rent the mold 9 designed? the watch life and Mik D have the same demensions i'm thinking? idk...just an observation
 
right, but thats the Factory, just like K2 has a factory in china, but most companies direct the factory to build a custom mold for their own skis,

i dont know if you support surface, it seems like you dont, your saying Surface just does what the factory tells them

Pale is the factory, Surface is the ski "designer"
 
pale doesn't tell them anything, they offer a stock ski. it's the "TT X 66 RED". you can buy it at pale. the surface watch life is the same as the TT X 66, only another topsheet

so surface designs only the topsheet, but the ski dimensions are given buy pale

link: http://www.palesport.at/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=58&Itemid=

if you want i can search pale's pricelist...

i don't want to fight surface, i think it's good to take the stock pale skis in the beginning, because it's cheaper, but i wondered if or when they start to "design" their own molds. Because it's more interesting to have a ski deisgned by skiers (surface riders) instead of a "TT X ..."

so by now, i don't think that i will buy surfaces because they aren't anything special or "artsy"
