I have questions.

The artwork at the tip of that vehicle seems to suggest something
Quite weird. How can one ski with this? https://www.tetongravity.com/forums/...bout_smile.gifQuote:

That could quite possibly be the dumbest thing Ive ever seen.
And Ive seen some shit, man.
Is that cable on the tails supposed to hook on a rock or stump to pitch you over the front Superman style?
what is it so I can buy one cuz it might be good apparently the tele board used to carve like a mofo especialy the 191
You never know when you might run into a Siamese twin vampire that you might have to dispatch.
I dunno, looks safe to me !
in all seriousness, its a new Heritage Labs proto. you werent supposed to get photos
There's a guy in SoCal that makes those split tail monos, under the name Coda I think. Him and his wife ski them at Big Bear all the time, with trucker-style headsets so they can chit chat while they're riding.
when I bought a teleboard I said to whichever one of the Fey brothers I dealt with it will be good to try something different and he said oh you will be different all right, you'll be the anti-christ

Yes, pedigree.Quote:
Until the closing of the 2006/2007 North American ski season, our Ridgecrest, California lab operated under the name of the "Yama Board and Ski Company" which was founded in the 1980s by Michael Lish. Coda president Chad Houck began his association with Yama in 1991 as a monoski customer and began participating in fabrication a few years later. In 2005, Lish worked with Chad to take on Yama production operations with the establishment of a Ridgecrest facility and the launch of internet sales. Increased sales soon pushed production capacity limits, and, in May 2007 plans to improve the Ridgecrest lab coincided with the rebranding of the company and spinning off from Lish with his support:
^^^yup. Tells you most of what you need to know.
Most recent video of Chad Houck (CEO) riding one on a wide open green groomer is not that impressive. He washes out on a lot of turns and he’s not going that fast
So cringe. The biomechanics of mono are just fundamentally wrong. These people are mentally ill.
Who's going to step up and try their skis?
There is a guy on my local hill who skis one, absolutely rips. I asked him about it. He has had multiple ACL reconstructions on both knees, with the grafts failing and needing redoing on multiple occasions. That is why he primarily rides the monoski, as his knees are locked together and virtually impossible to get a pivot shift injury. He told me the split tail is supposed to help the tail release in a more controlled way in choppy conditions.
HAHA, huge maggot presence (potentially) in that video. Just inside those trees on skiers right is my favorite smokeshack at Big Sky. And on the exact same day that this video was filmed I was in that shack with skifishbum, BobMc, and happytimefunbox. I’ve been studying this video to see if we show up, sneaking into the woods.Quote:

Is the name Lish something to do with skis made in a trailer out of sawdust ? buddy in the vid looks like he is about to fall inwards on everyturn
^^^Yup, after spending 20 years developing monos at Yama/Coda, Lish achieved the pinnacle of ski design and performance with 333Skis.
More proof that “extreme” is overused clickbait.
Oh God!
My eyes!
The attachments are working and I finally saw the actual product.
So much worse than I envisioned.
Just say no, kids.
I saw one in the wild at Mt. Rose on Wed. The Monopalooza event was held there last week.
