Thug thoughts

There are many parts to being a thug. You need em all. You need your tall t, your bandana in your back pocket, OG jiberish, super baggy pants, your 9s, your skullcandy's, etc.
 
I saw some ninthwards in amongst some skis next to a group of people who were in dare2b and trespass etc (I assume the skis belonged to one of them since nobody else was around). Guess one of them was a seriously lowkey baller
 
Ninthward made a set of fat skis called THA 187. Super directional stiff cambered charging skis, not thug at all. Might have been those

At a sizeable138/109/128mm, the Ninthward THA 187 has one thing on its mind gunning down powder. Built unlike any other fat ski on the market, THA 187 incorporates a two-inch carbon runner into a super-light tri-laminate poplar core, to create a light ski with consistent, big-mountain flex. Ninthward knows that billy-goating sketchy lines and landing big airs blind takes its toll on big boards, so they slapped a super-thick, ding-resistant Durasurf 4000 base and 13mm-thick ABS sidewalls onto THA 187. Further reinforcement includes a layered fiberglass ollie-pad mounting plate, and the knowledge that this ski won the 07 Freeski Nationals at Snowbird, and the Vegitate comp at Mt. Hood.

They were indeed the tha skis. Ive always associated ninthward with mikael deschenaeux wannabes. I didnt realize they actually made big mtn skis. Sounds pretty sweet actually - im gonna find that guy at t-line and take his skis. I recall he was decked out in Trew stuff.

Yo Bishop - what are your thoughts on ninthward? I have seen countless threads on this topic and still do not understand what role was filled while ninthward was active in the industry.

They didn't pay their advertising fees to NS so NS shunned them for a few years. Any threads about them were automatically deleted. I don't really know how I feel about the new ninthward. Old ninthward skis were super sick, but the people who use to run 9 absolutely sucked.

I still ride these boys. They're still going strong.

Just to clarify for everyone. New people who run ninth ward don't suck. Actually he's a good dude. Worth supporting if you are into the skis.
