    Hardy har har. I've got a pair of dem sitting in my garage right now. Skied them in AK and Squaw. Sick sick sick.

    I'm not sure how much I'm allowed to divulge, but they're way fatter, way longer, and have a very interesting shape.

    I took them to mccshlonks house and he was super stoked to see a ski such as it.

    So we're going to have competition among at least K2, Armada, and Salomon (not to mention DP and Capital) in the reverse-whatever powder ski market?

    You might be able to count in the 193 EHP from 4FRNT in there. (Well it's got tip and tail rocker anyways.)

    True.

    My glee was due to the prospect of a battle among three big companies. Thinking about it further, though, I'm a little saddened at the possible negative effect on the smaller players.

    Don't be. The smaller players will always differentiate themselves from the big players for a certain kind of ski buyer and the big boys will never offer those buyers the things they get from the small companies.

    In that case, we now return to my previously-scheduled glee.
