naw dude, not fear, i ride em, and the inside edge ripped out and the nose has delaminated from the base. but when they weren't broke the skis are pretty sick, just not 'dependable'

 
they're mushy, have no energy, and i don't like the sidecut.

from what i have heard, Salomon has a wood core version of the 1080 coming out next year or in the near future, but its only availible to sponcerd athleates and shop employes.

ya foam sucks ass. candide andCR had the wood core ones at x-games-thats why they were busting huge

only problem with that wood core/spaceframe combo is that they have to mill the core. I'd think that makes it significantly less structurally stable.

'why?'

'I was bored, and I typed in shiteaters.com, and there is actually a shiteaters.com... and they were eating shit. The internet is sick.'
 
why wouldn't they just make the wood ones available to the general public? and why would they have to mill the wood... if you use wood, you don't need space frame, if you want to keep the same flex pattern, they could just use a torsion box thing like k2.

they have to mill the wood core into the shape of the spaceframe, which costs more money than just fillin it with foam

'I should put my camera on a tripod - its easier to drink beer that way' - dirty steve
 
yeah, but what i'm saying is....

they use spaceframe to stiffen the ski in certain spots, because lets face it, foam is soft.

If they go to a wood core, why would they still need the spaceframe shape?

So everyone can watch the x-games and say wow, those are the spaceframe 1080s I'm gonna go buy a pair so i can boost as huge as C.R. and Candide. lol

No Mr.Porcupine, I don't wanna see your weiner
 
Spaceframe is made to lessen weight at the tip and tail of the ski. Using a wood core means you have to make it that shape. So you have to mill it, which would decrease the structural integrity.

well look at it this way, i never seen foam delam. When the pocket rockets and 03 10's came out, 4 outa 5 delaminated. Get the picture. I mean i know its something to do with the topsheet as well, but still.

I have the 03 1080s and haven't had any problems yet. They don't carve as well as normal skis but that's why they are twin tipped. And if you do break them warrenty them! Simple as that!

 
the skis are pretty good but im not really into the power rangers graphics or what ever they are

It's that millenium ridiculous flow, I never let go

I think its justs salomon's money grubbing ceo's using peopl and gimics to put more money in their pocket. i think the 1080 are alright but need to be redesigned with a better core

 
last years were a decent ski... this years however can't hold an edge for shit, and like i said before, they just feel lifeless.

i dont like the feel of the skis - the pocket rockets feel like snowlerblades on your feet compared to seth pistols

No energy.

Its like flat soda.

Foam sucks.

Good for people who read all the salomon marketing and are brainwashed by their money like the candide poster that came with freeze.

Him holding that fake 1080.

 
i got em, and i love em, they are great in all conditions, i'm sure there are people who say that other skis kick the holy poo out of 1080's, but i'm sticking with the 10's.

'If you ever catch on fire, try to avoid looking in a mirror, because I bet that will really throw you into a panic'
 
Foam cores are weak... i had older pow airs with a foam core, and they were soft and dead, now i have the PEs... they are not as soft... but still pretty soft... they different is that they have pop, life, and energy. That would be retarded to make a wood core 1080 and not sell it to the public... everyone would want it and not be able to get it. And for the milling spaceframe thing... what if they had a wood core that went all the way from tip to tail and instead of changing into the spaceframe, they had foam for the spaceframe part.

why have paid atheletes promoting a product that is not even available to the public? i think that the pros getting better skis than the public represents a disturbing trend in this sport. right cnow even the highest level pros, like seth morrison, are skiing retail skis. what that means is that the retail skis have to be high quality, ause the pros have to use them too. that is good news for us mortals, cause we get a good product. if the industry shifts to having 'pro only' models, that means that they can make shitty products for us, but the pros still stay happy.

i hate how only the athletes get the wood core ski, if salomon wants to use foam that's cool, but i'm gonna go ride something else that has a wood core that is available to me

Seize the carp
 
How do you know that pros are skiing retail skis? just cause they look the same does not mean that they are built the same. JUst like how when tanner was with rossi, he wasnt riding the stock scratch, his was considerably stiffer.

cosiderably stiffer?!? lol, go watch SM3

as far as the 03 1080s they are mint, but I can see how some people might not like them.

everybody go demo the skis you're gonna buy because preferences are just that.

No Mr.Porcupine, I don't wanna see your weiner
 
what are you talking about? the rail shot with the Scratch BC's on? of corse those are soft, but the fs are stiffer.

everyone has their own preferences like I said. I'm not gonna argue about it... they are a solid ski in my opinion.

the bandwaggon ski??? you are officially a fucking retard. It's not what you ride it's how you ride it.

No Mr.Porcupine, I don't wanna see your weiner
 
yea asshole, bandwagon ski, meaning the only reason people have it is because it was one of the first twintips available and riders like auclair and cusson used to ride em, im not arguing, im just sayin i dont like the teneighties, their way to soft and mushy

 
you're entitled to your opinion, and that's why they make all skis different thank god.

No Mr.Porcupine, I don't wanna see your weiner
 
yeah straight bro... anyway the bottom line is demo demo demo.

No Mr.Porcupine, I don't wanna see your weiner
 
There must be something to the space frame BS, as Salomon has gone nearly %100 spaceframe through their line next year, personally I like the original 1080 much better than the '03. Then again I love my '03 Mike Nicks even more, it's definetly not what everyone else likes, but what YOU like...

May the seed of your loins be fruitful in the belly of a lamb...
