    Salomon Collapsible Skis

    ...and I'm not talking Pocket Rockets.

    Weirdest thing I've seen for a while. Anybody ever come across these?

    Okay, so those are freakishly weird, I wonder how long they really are?
    It looks like they are use inserts for the peices to come together, not something that you would want to really rip around on.

    Interesting idea..
    Skiing, where my mind is even if my body isn't.

    It would suck if the skis folded up while you were rippin it up.
    I'd like to see the mechanism in more detail. Afterall, they have jet attack bombers with wings that fold up for storage.

    Now... how about a ski with a a "dial a waist" knob on it.

    Red line: Trainspotter (straight down into the main vein)
    Blue Line: Nessie's Neck (according to the Weekly World News)
    Green line: Groundskeeper Willie's Ballsack (Scariest and hairiest in Scotland)
