Im not asking about the skis themselves. Im talking about the contest in the freeskier mag. How if u find the helicopter you go to meet the triplets dot com and u fill information and if u win you get a pair of triplets.
You um....dont. They made them so if one ski breaks or if you lose one or something, idk, you have another in reserve. OR you could get 3 guys together to buy 2 sets of triplets and have 3 pairs of skis to ride
You get three binders along with them so really it is an amazing deal. Look at the third ski as an insurance policy; when one ski breaks you don't have to wait two or so months to get another ski to go out and tear it up again, but rather use the extra ski and go out the next day so you don't have to wait for the insurance to fall through.
its so dumb. They say you get three skis for the price of two, but that really isn't possible. Somewhere along the line they either had to raise the price or lower the quality. Skis cost a lot to make.
It does, but neither the quality or the price has to be sacrificed. Think of it, it really is an amazing way to get people to buy their skis. Plus with new technology, you can make skis with the same quality just at a cheaper price. That is what we call be cost efficient.
in their ad atomic says you can mix and match depending on your style that day. But they refer to it as skiing style. Like "uhh half pipe today, i'll need these two."
how does that work. each ski has a different flex pattern.
yeah right.
^ Actually they're not quite the exact same ski, the HP triplets are a bit stiffer, and the graphite base makes them faster, the Urbans are a bit softer, and they have a reinforced edge under the boot area so you don't break edges.
and as to the Quality issue, that's something that's not being sacrificed at all, it's still the same quality that Atomic's been Known for.
THe Triplets are going to be changed for 06/07, the HP is staying the same but I totally re-designed the Urban, they're SUPER sick!
