Anyone and their mothers are complaining about the new 1080s. Everyone is bitching about the spaceframe, anyone notice that everyone bitching about em doesnt own the ski, and hasnt been on the ski, theyve just head they suck from a friend! its an awesome ski! the spaceframe made the 1080 a better firm ski. If its not the spaceframe that you guys are bitching about em, what is it? Its a nice ski.

I talked to two kids who had them at Okemo today, they both loved em. I was on my old 1080s (yellow, kickin it old school) and I couldn't believe how much wider they've made all the dimensions. Now to sit here and wait for my new concepts to get here....

The new tens are awesome, all this foam core shit is bugging me, ppl make it sound like it is foam like insulation or something when in fact it is high-density foam that is really strong and should not have the same warping characteristics of wood, if you bend a peice of wood 10,000 times it's bound to get weak too, so don't say the foam is a bad thing cause everything else is like it

Hell yeah I was going to make the same post but I was too tired (too much hiking for the goods). Anyhow I demoed them on Sat and bought them on Sun, sweet ski. They really rip up the goods. I took them in the park and was having a more difficult time tho, but Im sure this was due to moving up from a 169 00' ten to a 181 03' ten with demo bindings.

would be interesting to put all the critics out there to a ski test. Get them to rate the 5 twins in order of what they think is the best and then let them ride them blind folded!!!

I reckon alot of people will be surprise by the results!!

yeah id like a vid of blindfolded skiers, but usually they just put black tape over the top of the ski so the testers cant tell

everyone also talks shit about how Lines skis delaminate. Salomon, like line, has a return policy of it does happen, but beside that, WHY THE HELL WOULD THEY HAVE SUCH A GREAT REPUTATION IF THEY WERE BREAKING ALL THE TIME. too many people talk shit that have never even seen the new 1080.

Oh shit, there it goes....

All these skier kids want to see nowadays is big air. You want to see some big air? Pull my finger...
