Salomon AK Rocket Teamversion

[Gurterno]

Am I the only one who has seen theese puppys. I was at a shop in Val Thorens, France and he had managed to score a pair.

They're 191 cm and 113 mm underfoot . Salomon AK Rocket Lab Gun or something like that. I regret that I didnt take a picture of them. Very limited, I think Kaj Zackrisson has them.

They looket just like the AK Rocket lab 195 04. But they were red under the swollowtail, I cant remember if the normal ones are.

Does anyone have a photo?

Didn't you hear? Salomon use blind mountain nuns to make their team skis.

That would certainly explain a lot!

But isn't it strange that noone knows about them.

I'm only asking because my friends don't believe me and I would like a photo or a link or something just to proove it.

Kaj was skiing some 205 AK Rockets in AK last March. Those were last year's skis though I guess.

Prob some prototype ski they had him test......

I read something similar here (in Swedish, written by "MnO")

I think I've seen a picture of the skis you mention, or the bases that is. They were red/orange under the swallowtail, had some blue dots/drops - like the pink ones on the original Seth Pistol bases - here and there, and at the tip they had the same logo as some of last seasons 1080 Lab skis have. They also seemed to be a bit wider than a 95 mm waist.

There are probably only a couple of riders that get them, methinks. I only saw pics of Zackrisson with the "Great White" a couple of years ago. No one else. That one also was an xx wide with a swallowtail.

I think that i saw them on Zachriassons feet last spring in Riksgränsen freeride competition.
Baby blue (like bromodels?),long,swallowed.

Or on the other hand, i might seen wrong the swallow part, and they were normal lab guns.

Those were actually the first prototypes of the swallows, from almost three years ago. Made a handful before they put the 195 into production. Kina is on them in High Life.

there were some of the 205 swallowtails for sale in LL for $1000 con 916 but Mikey picked them up for a much better price (I hope!).
