The good news is that the Watea's are big and black and quite a bit stiffer than this years model... Haven't seen a pair in person yet, so...

The Atomic SX11 is nasty:

I can't decide if the new one is just as bad, or even worse:

I see a trend here: cross skis from any manufacturer are really f&%*ing ugly.

Umm... coyote ugly?

How about the Bro's topsheet?
I know I'm peeing into my own mug now but the fair blue ain't do it either.

They're a bit of a dirtbag status symbol around here, and like most of the people riding them, these skis won't be winning any beauty contests:

I can't believe it: 72Twenty you're jumping straight out of the monoski closet, without further ado!

You must feel very secure about your sexual orientation:tongue:

Tackiest graphics ever.

Original Stockli Stormriders aren't exactly beautiful. Battleship gray w/ '80's neon green.

Yes, yes I do.

In fact, here is a picture of me kissing a dead beaver. It is frozen solid. I love beaver. Any way I can get it. ;)

I used to have the Elan SCX monoblock (the red/black one, second from the top in the pic). First shaped ski for me, in 1996 I think. Really fun on groomers. Really bad on everything else. I bought them thinking "cool, these'll float in powder." Nope...
