this sounds rather questionable

pretty sure someone launching off 30+ foot cliffs occassionaly would break skis more too by the way

sftc - Brett is just pretending to be sponcered by SPY. Its part of his medication and counseling program.

Did I say I was hanging with Toby every weekend?

Like I said, beat it, beater.

I used to break skis all the time when I was constantly hammering rocks in Taos and Crested Butte. shit..no probs here in well-covered utah..seems to me that the amount of core water damage a ski takes is at least as important as how huge your double twister spread into ice bumps was.

Of course I'm a giant fatass and that never helps anything either.

I'd like to see a deal where you could get a fucking warrantee right off any dealer's rack instead of sending it off to fucking italy or wherever and waiting the whole season. That would be way better from my end.

I watched phUnk break a pair once. Glad thats all that broke!

**Ted Stryker'** · 08-11-2005, 07:11 AM

If you skied as backseat as my buddy Brett, while launching 80 footers, you'd break every pairof skis you owned too.

It would also totally fuck up the ski industry. But yes it would be nice to be able to get free skis whenever we wanted

If they were sold in singles then all you'd have to do is take your left hand (asuming you are right handed) and pick up another one. But I must agree with you, not too many warranties here either. When you buy a set of 400 or so dollar stix, you gotta sorta care for them and watch what you do.

Yes, atomic sells the Neox bindings in sets of three for the triplets (logically, they cost 50% more, about, than a normal set). Otherwise you could just ask your shop dude to drill the third one for whatever binders you use. The whole three thing does raise some interesting legal issues regarding mounting and testing in a shop. Personally, I would keep one blank in reserve.

Everytime somebody makes a remark about Blurred's SPY avatar, he goes off on a personal vendetta rampage... Still not quite sure why.

**trainnvain** · 08-11-2005, 05:34 PM

Hey, this turned into a pissing match. Shocker. Good job kids.

Fuck , those triplets are shitty looking skis.

A+

splendid thread cunting

**sftc** · 08-11-2005, 06:03 PM

I was pissed last night about his lame ass cunting of the "inner demons" threads, so I figured I would see if I could get him fired up over here as a distraction.
It didn't take much.
Sorry about cunting this one up, I'll go sit in the corner and be quiet now.

So they'll sell 2 skis for the price of one, but the bindings are still full price?

Probably because he has no use of his upper body or has poor balance. The reason the skis are like that is because it forces a snowplow-like stance on the skis and makes controlling it more managable. A lot of times, people in bi skis (the thing on the left) need to be teathered to someone else who can control their speed, may not have to with the skis like that.
