    The drive through at the bank is walking distance so was pulling out. I always wear my seatbelt.

    Dinging lasts for 1 min then off.

    He's too dumb for that.

    How so? Because we call out what a joke Peak is? We have our reasons and good ones at that.

    What's your reason showing up calling us trolls? Add something substantive to the discussion or you're the troll.

    As a longstanding trg ski superstar, I aim to provide entertainment in the off season. Todd and Steve mail me fat checks quarterly.

    I have no strong feelings about Peak in either direction but I take issue with the suggestion that only with /this/ thread TGR has become booger eating nerds.
    There are lions and there are sheep. So, which one are you?

    They must be very hard at work designing the second generation keyhole technology which will be called piehole. The piehole technology is just going to eat up gnarly terrain for breakfast.

    Perhaps they will build off the existing breakthrough technology and add a second because two keyholes are better than one

    I think we all know the best models have three keyholes.

    I heard a rumor that they have not / may not get their skis this year - viable source. Also confirmed that 'peak' Peak employees on site <= 1.

    Pretty sure they must be trying to survive in name only with the hope of suckering in more crowd source money early next year to keep enriching themselves.

    As far as lack of anyone working at headquarters, imagine Bode and Andy are off somewhere blaring that Dire Straits tune money for nothin' and your chicks for free.

    Of course they are not getting skis this year. If any new skis were on the way they would be taking preorders. Let's see if Bode and Andy can find any more dumb SOBs to give them money so they can stay afloat and keep living the dream.

    They’re going to a 2 tier pricing model. The premium models will be called A holes. Standard models will be called B holes.

    More news on ex-racers helping ski companies. Ted Ligety is now "helping" DPS do something.

    Best powder ski of 24/25 according to Ski Beater Magazine. The 24/25 skis will be available shortly.......https://peakskis.com/blogs/stories/2...is-coming-soon This being October it seems that they would have their shit together as its ski buying season for the masses.

    Looks like the only two skis they will have coming out are the 88 and 110 widths. Gone are all the Dav models and the 94 and 104. Probably because this is all they could afford to order.

    On a positive note, I didn't think they were going to pull off being able to order anything. Let's see. Still no arrival date and they are not offering preorders. They are clearly financially strained, but maybe they can last a year longer than I expected.

    Look for another crowd sourcing fundraising early next year for dumbasses that want to donate more money to Bode and Andy.
