    SPLAT IS THE FUCKING MAN, and bros are cool too...

    Earlier this year, I bought marshalolson's bro blems from him. If any of you ever saw them - huge missing sidewall gaps filled in with silicone caulking. crazy. anyway, marsh had five days on the skis and on my fourth day tele-ing on them, the day after the pic below was taken, I somehow delamed the top sheet behind the heel mount for bombers while fully just JRA. I emailed Pat asking if he might have one extra ski laying around that he could sell me and he told me to send both skis back to him in Reno. I was hoping for some sort of hookup while trying to make it clear that I did not excpet to be bro-ed out. He replaced the skis with brand new, non-blemished super-stiff bros for the cost of shipping. so hot. thanks for you continued commitment to the tribe, Pat. Skis are mounted and will, appropriately enough, have their virgin run at the Colorado mini in the morning....
    To anyone who has ever looked at a set of bros and thought they looked like a cool ski: they ski better than they look, by buying and skiing bros you are supporting a rootsy company born out of these boards, and you get to ski a fucking sweet set of sticks. BUY EM...

    thanks again, Pat.

    random pic of the bros in action in the boat's bc a month ago...

    Is this the Splat appreciation thread?
    Because I sure do appreciate him.
    I'm just a simple girl trying to make my way in the universe...
    I come up hard, baby but now I'm cool I didn't make it, sugar playin' by the rules
    If you know your history, then you would know where you coming from, then you wouldn't have to ask me, who the heck do I think I am.

    I sure do too! BTW, If any maggot wants to demo some blue base 188's I'm stuck at the lodge in Kirkwood all weekend, and mine are sitting here with naxo nx21's on 'em, so it's super-easy to adjust the boot sole length. Ski 'em once, though, and you'll be ordering a pair...

    I am sure he will take any appreciation from you that he can get

    BWAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! How'd your fukkin ski end up underwater for two days????????

    marshal: Mitch had his own impressions and I respect his personal opinion.
    Like me, as an OG, I understand why he feels the softs are much easier to ski.
    You, on the other hand, are an animal. We made the stiffs for your type of skiing.
