Details, anyone?
seriously, how did this get posted on gapic first:nonono2:
That is really really big and I'm very excited about it. Anybody have any idea on specs?
That is so transparently a marketing ploy. 1-post youtube JONG, bro-brahs standing around in the factory..."secret" video my ass.
120mm waist. Normal sidecut, normal camber, yawn...
Seriously, there's really only one way you would know this. :nonono2:Quote:

187,197,207 are the sizes I heard. I may have to snag me some 197's I'm thinking. I wonder how stiff they will be? We shall know very shorly with on snows coming up fast. They should have some for us at the Mammoth demo.
Nothing special but the hull sculpted tip could be interesting nothing revolutionary.
Remember the Dynastar hull tip? Yeah. That lasted long.Quote:

on Dukes
Kinda sounds like incest in Hazard County. But the combo would slay some big BC or AK faces.
Is it just me or is there something strange going on with the tails of those Dukes?
Rumor has it that dark black slit you see there is a spot where a removable tail fin can be inserted like a centreboard.
That's friggen awsome!
I hope to god that isnt true :nonono2: :nonono2:Quote:

yes, it comes with a fin.
the duke will be in Meribel this weekend.
those things look evil. that is all.
Any further info on these guys? What's the flex like, I think that is what everyone is wondering, and if not, at least it's what I am wondering...
Looks pretty stiff from the guy trying to flex it. It wasn't jiggling like the new Sally Gun Lab. On a serious note though, Fischer and Marker getting praise on this board??? Wowza
I can't wrap my mind around that tail. If I buy a pair (unlikely) or get a free pair (even more unlikely) I'd probably just chop it off.
I presume 10 or 15cm will be taken up by that kookie looking tail and not the effective edge length. I think skipass had more info on them a while back?
That might be a bit overstated, it didn't look that long. Would like to check out the skipass info.
I heard this ski was pretty limited addition. Only 250 being pressed at 207 length. Good marketing gig, but I can't see fischer being the new Volkl.
I just got off the phone with somebody at Fischer. They couldn't tell me how many of these skis were being made, but they said that wholesale on em was going to be about $650. Not too bad at all actually. That would be the most I've spent on a pair of skis in forever, but for these I think it would be worth it.
They also couldn't tell me if they're going to be proformable, but they said theres a chance.
I am so unbelievably stoked on this ski, I think I'd stab someone in the face for a pair.
