Atomic Bro

**Kya** · 02-09-2007, 07:22 PM

I'm sure its the same ski on the inside as the sugar daddies, but anyone know where the "Bro" came from on these Janaks? Should Splat go kick some Atomic ass or what

?

There's no way you grew that beard out that fast. Why've you been sitting on this photo?
Somewhere there's a thread about the Atomic "Bro".

Could this lead to the capital PM Gear so desperately needs?

Edit: I actually asked the Atomic rep about whether or not they knew about the real Bro. They said they didn't.

He has trimmed the beard at least a half dozen times since the Fall. Can't wait for another hilarious transformation week.

I believe we'll be sending them a note and asking that their large, entrenched-in-the-industry-since-time-immemorial ski company please stop encroaching on the good vibe name of our teensy weensy little start up ski company's ski.

Sue their asses. I'm sure there's a lawyer here willing to take the case

Do you have the 'Bro' name trademarked? I seem to remember something about an obligation to defend your trademark from a business law class...

That ski is hurting my eyes.

MAKE IT STOP!!!

Splat, if you doe have a mark on that name, defend it! the Atomic Janak Bro tele ski is so noodly that it might put a different light on your skis....

who is the hippy with the huge beard? are why are short skis so much taller than him?

**AKA** · 02-11-2007, 07:21 PM

The year before PMGEAR released the Bro Model Capitol Snowboards had a Bro Model board. fyi.

If Atomic didn't know, their marketing team sucks. They should hire me to figure stuff like this out.

And Marshal don't be all pissed cuz I get faceshots in like 6 inches of pow and you need like 6 feet

Atomic should hire some graphic designers at some point. That ski looks like the box my friend's japanese motherboard came in. All that's missing is the silver robot and planets. Atomic skis have been hideous the past few years.

Hey splat,

I've gotta come clean with ya, I didn't cancel my order because of cabbage issues.... it's because I thought that I was going to receive those soft psuedo bros that Hagrid is holding up above.

**splat** · 02-11-2007, 11:34 PM

dood. even I'm confused.

According to Urban Dictionary, the term "bro" doesn't provide the positive connotations outside the ski industry as we've been lead to believe:

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=bro

1. Bro: Stupid white trash guys in the 909 with lifted trucks, wife beaters, shitty music (usually the most popular rap, hardcore, and nowadays emo) ugly girlfriends, ugly hair, mouths constantly open, retarded as all get up, have no common sense, think its cool to park half on the curb half off, put Flowmaster exhausts on Nissan Hardbodies and Toyota longbeds, don't realize that a huge lift job and giant tires fucks up your gears, which in turn equals less power. Fags.

I saw some OC bitches and some bros fighting last night. I was hoping they'd kill each other off, but I had to do it for them.

2. Bro: A usually white young male, found commonly in places like san bernardino county in california, as well as orange county. always, without exception, drive big lifted trucks, often white. has the name of their crew or whatever in big white letters on their back window (ie, "skin", "metal mulisha". wear: trucker hats off center, plug earrings, sunglasses, wife beater shirt or no shirt, sagging dickies shorts, high black socks, skater shoes or those black corduroy slipper things, have a lot of tatoos of things like stars.

my neighbor is a bro. hes got the lifted loud truck, wears the stuff, and even has a confederate flag hanging from his rearview mirror.
