any1 no the main differences between the foils, guns and thrusters. I can tell the guns are a little wider and the thrusters mite be a little thinner but iv only seen pics

ive rode them this weekend, and i gotta say there quite the nice improvement from last years 1080s. there very quick and respond fast, which i gotta say is really fun. lots of pop in the tail and are not noodles like last years 1080s...the added fatness is also very welcoming. all in all a very fun ski that really doesnt feel like a twin tip. Durability would be the only concern i would have about them since i also saw them 1 day, but if they were durable they would forsure be my skis next year

1080 Gun LAB - new ski with Salomon's surf board graphics. aka s-core blu board. IT's sick and 101 underfoot!

1080 CR LAB promodel - similar to this year sick camo ski. It's now avail in 188 and 166 (COOL!)

1080 Gun - was the legendary pocket rocket with new blu and orange graphic. Really sharp and mathces the sick promodel boots.

1080 FOIL - those who have skied it have nothing but rave reviews. This is the Xgames Gold winner!

1080 Flyer - the orriginal 1080 but priced really well and perfect for the lighter rider with a budget. $649 with 810ti

1080 Thruster - was the 720 but now cheaper with a binding. $499 with 810ti

1080 Fish - was the Grom.

FAQ - what's with the names? They are surf inspired to go with the surf style culture of freestyle skiing.

The PJ page only gives the dimensions for the 166, you might wanna tell your buddies to add the 174 and 182 dimensions, cause 85 + 87 underfoot is dope...

steezyme or whoever wrote all the reviews about each salomon model, you mixed up the thruster and the flyer. The flyer is the old 1080 and the thruster is the more expensive one. Get ur Facts right

First of all, way to bring back an OLD ASS POST FOR NO REASON! Second, YOU get your facts straight. The flyer is the old 720! The Thruster is the old 1080. THINK MCFLY!

i have ridden them 10 days on snow and i found them stiffer than the original 03/04 PE's i used to have but maybe i jsut havent broken them in yet. very solid ski and very light. i stepped up 15 cm in lenth when i bout the 174 and they are light enough that i noticed no difference. buy them!

They are realiable. The owner got me thrusters in may when no one had them yet. I picked up the foil in may when he started gettin them, Its a solid ski, but the foam core is a killer.

A good pickup line is

Foam or not, I think that with the way ski tec. is evolving year to year we'll be seeing alot of foam core skis that really rock.
