Did Amer buy SCARPA and not tell anyone?


Rumors: if it says Blizzard on it (and relevant to this forum) it will be new this year.

Bout time. Salomon was sucking low hind tit in the touring boot department. Now, let's see if they've figured out how to shape it for a foot that actually occurs in nature.

The new MTN lab. Even from the photo it looks like it fits better than their other boots. The fact that the forefoot is wider than the ankle is a great start 🙄

I realize it may be rare, but I can confirm that at least two such feet exist in nature :-) The Salomon X-Alp was the best fitting light touring boot I’ve had. Unfortunately the amount of slop that quickly developed in the touring lock mechanism and cuff rivets was a no-go for me. This boot looks exciting unless it was made to fit normal people.

Saw a salomon rep skiing on a new QST 106 and new shift binding today. Heel looked a little different, brakes were really tucked in. Toe looks like it functions the same but slightly different look. I imagine there’ll be some info coming out after the new year.

This was posted in the Shift thread earlier this week. Considering we're already discussing Salomon I figured I'd quote it here. I'm very curious to see what they changed on the new Shift. It was so close to being that 50/50 binding we've all wanted.

Dynastar:

New topsheets on Mfree line.

New, wider Mpro with metal. The new LP105? Time will tell.

K2 will be updating most of the Mindbender ski series. I think everything but the 116.

BCA will be coming out with an electric airbag.

^those are dope.

The Salomon boots looks promising for heel hold but hopefully they've fixed that dogshit toebox too.

This is really interesting. An LP105 an updated rocker profile and some new sizes would be killer.

New Mpro, huh?

Come ski at the INW mag together and I can do more than tell, I can show. And if you're between a 26.5 and a 27.5 you might even be able step in to them and slide around.

Planning to be there for the Saturday at Silver! Unfortunately I have gigantor feet at a 340mm BSL which keeps me out of most ski sharing. Eager to check them out, though.
