Welcome to the live chat with Line Skis founder Jason Levinthal. Jason will do his very best to answer as many questions as possible during the hour but won't be able to get to everything in detail.
From your questions we'll be conducting an interview with Jason on NS Radio so we can go far more in-depth on the important issues.
So post away and we'll get your questions answered one way or another.

to be seen, they couldn't commit to a solid plan for the park when we spoke with them next week. We'll post on our news if we hear otherwise

after ten years of practice we have a stronger understanding of what paying a skier (pro) brings us and what it doesn't. times are also changing, communication is at the speed of thought not the speed of the next magazine issue a year later. The cost of doing business and marketing and riders perceived value all have changed. Everything in the world is constantly changing including the fact that every other ski company that wants your business is using the same marketing formula that we had been doing all these years and for us to keep doing the same old, same old just when all of these have changed made simply no sense.

"twin tip" skis were invented long before there was a camera to document them, we're talking about a ski that is 100% symmetric (twin) including equal height tip and tail. I made twin tip skis in Buffalo in '95 that would be considered more of a modern day twin tip which most people called skiboards. definitely one of the first but who knows for sure. all the matters is we like the skis we ride today unlike me 10 years ago.

sick concept tough to pull off but. Its sick that a small company like them is working so hard to put on an event that brings so much awaresness to the sport. Thats a big project that I haven't seen any larger brands do. You should support Icer wax because they obviously work hard to support you're cause.

was it hard to believe Pollard when he came up with the idea of the Prophet and how it could potentially change the entire ski industry and the way people ski today?
