CoreUPT and Bluehouse were so gangster

I've been thinking about bluehouse skis for the past few weeks but have been unable to call the name of the brand, reading this comment was a very satisfying brain click moment. Their sticks were cheap too, had a pretty decent utah team, pretty sure kutchen was on it for a bit?

Also Amplid was pretty core for a sec when they had steve stepp. Don't think they make skis anymore.

Wasn't Candide on their team for a bit?

These were the Candide pro model.

coreupt built a seriously stacked team at the time and basically flooded Tignes (where they were based) and I can only assume they went big and overstretched themselves and it didn’t pay off long term.

In the years after they went under you could get them dirt cheap from some European clearing house outlets. You barely see them now.

They had Colby West and Schiller too as part of that OG crew, i think some other big names.

Similar category is APO - had Sammy C and Kai Mahler, I had a pair of Sammy's park skis, they de-lammed right away and were generally not fun skis.

Amplid sponsored Tom Wallisch before he moved to Scott skis.
 
Pressed out of Capita mothership. Honestly, I think they just realized skiing wasn’t worth it for them anymore. Founder/owner is a snowboarder

Yeah the APO Sammy C was kind of a basic park ski, kai mahlers were sick.
 
I loved my BlueHouse Maestro, such a fun and dumb ski.

What ever happened to their factory that they were giving away? Anyone know what came of that?
