Salomon 1080 coming back

Dope graphics love the throwback! Its amazing that Salomon has completely ignored their park scene though. They should develop a fat more all mtn freestyle ski as something complimentary to the qst 106 and 118. The 118's have been one of the worst skis i've ever been on really not happy with them.

true they should make something like the blackops but with their tech
 
Probably just an updated/different graphic NFX, the original 1080 would have to be completely scrapped and redesigned to compete with modern ski designs

How have they ignored park scene in any way?

Three letters for u my guy

I don’t care if they are revisions, I just want that graphic on my ski again. It’s so nostalgic.
 
Does Salomon even read newschoolers? They would be guaranteed to sell at least one pair of these. Do they not know anything about market share? I hardly even ski anymore and would buy these.
 
Any updates on the 1080s? I owned several early pairs of 1080s and would strongly consider purchasing a pair of the revised new editions.
 
The bases on the original were yellow and these were black. And the tips look rockered a bit but I could be wrong.

The original 1080 was like 75 underfoot max, there's no way a ski like that would sell in 2019 no matter how much nostalgia people feel for them

they should make a limited edition 1080 graphic on the nfxs
 
I'd buy a limited edition 1080 with those old yellow/black graphics. I bought a pair in 97' skied them earlier this season and are still so much rocker fun

nah I hope they bring back the rocker 2 100s, which is kinda what these look like

I agree 100%. I feel like the Rocker 2 100s would sell better as a dedicated park ski in today's industry anyways. I loved mine, they were a lot of fun.

pretty sure they're just qst 99's with the 1080 topsheet

QST 99 has less tail taper and lower tail splay. But if they did just make a ski with the QST 99's construction in a more symmetrical package, I'd be 100% on board.
 
Kinda wondering if their not just vinyl wrap. I dont social media has anyone tried contacting this guy and asking.

Yeah, good point. But you’re right, that sounds like a crazy fun ski. I love the qst line, but they would be rad in a more symmetrical shape.
