Just got the new 1080 Foils w/S912Ti bindings in a cool sports shop in Italy yesterday.
The Skis look sick! Impressive!
I can't wait to jump on'em!
Am thinking of going to a 3-hour drive glacier, which is in Austria, this weekend...

Unfortunately, it's almost impossible to find brands like Line, Armada, 4Frnt, Ninthward here in Europe!

Only a few Rossi, K2 and Salomon models.

Since watching the Xgames 2005 Slopestyle and seeing Charles Gagnier rock on the Foils, I was hooked on them.
Even though I know that his are way sicker than the retail versions!

And I think the ski shop guy gave me a good deal on the skis plus bindings for 500 (converted to US$).

Thanx for that link.
I was searching the web a lot and couldn't find many european on-line stores.

I will save it for future reference!

I also found an interesting dealer in Europe, (UK to be exact) who also carry Armadas and others:

www.ellis-brigham.com

But I'm sure I'll enjoy my new Foils and I like their underground simple but still very freestyle look!

People always say taht Salomon delam afst but it all depends on what you doo with them. A couple of years ago I was riding Rossignol for race and delam two pairs in one winter. Then I switched over to Salomon and havent delam a pair and I still do the same thing with them. and for twins I have ridden the new Foils last year at a demo and they were great.
