Yo hater,

if you hate the huge tails, buy the invaders. Personally, I love huge tails, cuz they save your ass if you land switch in something funky.

The new Libertys are made better.

I personally like the larger tails too... It makes riding switch in powder and slush soooo much easier.

huge tails? lines have equal tip and tail height which makes them a true twin.

dude, i hate the graphics too. they r wicked ugly and i guess the new skis are better too. i hate their bindings tho, cuz those things break like your grandmas hips. i like liberties stuff and rossi and salomon stuff. i also dont like how line started out as skiboarding, cuz it seems that it took some of that style with it. I bet they are sweet to ride tho, even tho i dont want to.

i've been on four pairs of lines and all i can say is they're the SHIT! especially the newer stuff. last years EP pros and this year's elizabeths are the most versatile all mountain/park skis i've ever ridden.

some ppl are saying they dont like them because of graphics? last i knew, graphics don't affect your skiing at all. i could be totally wrong. who knows, maybe someone will come up with the god graphic which automatically makes you the best skiier in the world. I'll work on it guys. Next season if you see me doing slow 1800's you know i found the perfect graphic.

So you like Liberty, who designs their graphics in paint? The new salomon's have a square on each end. You have terrible taste. And the whole skiboarding argument is retarted. EVERY company in the market had a skiboard back then. There was no way line could have come out with a ski in the beginning and survived. And guess who used to skiboard: Pollard, the Phils, tons of other skiers considered to have amazing style. You are an idiot.

no graphics do not make a ski perform better. however, i would rather have a ski with cool graphics on it like the fugative rahter than a 1080. besides, they're all freestyle skis anyway.

^ you obviously misread my post because i said i would rather take a pair of fugatives over a pair of salmons, and yes, these are all freestyle skis so no matter which one you pick they are going to perform well in the park.

LINE is awesome. I've been riding LINE for 3 of the 4 years that I've been skiing and never had any problems with them.

I had armadas in there, which are GREAT in the backcountry, but not so great on the rest of the mountain, whereas my skogens (2005) hold their own everywhere nicely.

i used to like line a lot more than i do now. i think they're going downhill. their graphics, the feel of the company. because of pollard they've been the only company creating anything new and different. i think thats the only thing they have going for them.

Line was supposed to go threw the roof when the Reactor was released, but that didn't quite turn out as planned. Line has a good cult base of skiers who are always loyal, but if they wanna take the market by storm they need something that separates them from everybody else. In my opinion Line's future lies in the hands of that damn binding. They are still a very young company compared to salomon, rossi etc. There was so much hype surrounding that binding, and then people were totally disappointed. If they can perfect that binding to where it's the safest on the market and economically durable, they will fly.

As for the skis, the graphics have no meaning to me, because i sticker them up anyways. The skis have shown to be pretty durable though.

with the binding thing, they just had t osee what the problems were from the first year, once they fix the kinks, it will be awsome and will revolutionize the whole idea about bindings

The elizabeths look really sick. I skied the chronic wide and the prophet 130 this year. I did some straightlines with the chronic, and the were really solid at speed. The tails were a little stiff for my liking, but they can save you from washing out when you land backseat. The prophets are another beast... They act as sails, so when you catch air, you actually can feel them sorta keeping you in the air. I had a lot of fun on them, and they really arent that hard to get used to. I would consider buying maybe some 1260s, if I didnt already have my skis for next season lined up.
However, the MTX things... those are peices. Hate the ride of those.

By the way, next year the Liberty graphics will be better.

I really really dislike all the graphics for next season. I don't know what so many people see in them. The last two seasons their skis have been absolutely mint. If i had the money, i would be picking up a pair of Pollards (either year) in an instant.

Uh...no Line didn't revolutionize shit. They jumped on Salomon's coat tails just like everyone else. Line didn't start producing a quality ski until about five years after the company formed.
