    Snow season soon, time to breathe live back into this thread.

    And these pics are to show the new camber vs. old one.

    i believe Splat has said in another thread that the new ones are stiffer with less camber. that is, next year's 179 stiff is stiffer than the 05-06 179 stiff, and less camber.

    those two skis are the last of last years batch on the right and the first of this year's batch on the left.

    dima will have the two in sa in a few days for a little test run comparison.

    Those blue bases....are my eyes deceiving me, or do they look wider than the 188 they're sitting next to? are those for the 192?

    Love the shot of all the pre-bent edges sitting there....waiting...

    The 193s will be ready for testing at Hood in late September. We'll be pressing them and a fattened version of the 179s once the cores are done.
    We'll be pressing the regular 179s and 188s soon. We're testing some resins now, perfecting the process, and prepping materials for shipping in October.

    All east coasters in favor of a fattened version of the 179s say eye!

    How fat are we talking? <105 or >105 waste?
    Harvest the ride.

    Any updates on when the new site will be ready for action? Regardless, is it still possible to use the current site to order skis for 06/07?

    Twoplanker is overseeing the bulk of the website redevelopment so he can answer this best, but I believe he mentioned "September"..could be more towrds the end of Sept though. 2planka what say you?

    And yes to your second question. You can still use the current site (link on the bottom below the "we'll be right back" note).
