Replying to 1080 Foils - surprise skis of the year
This site is reknowned for dissing Salomon. For good or bad you have to give some props to Salomon.
Not only have they started the twin thing but they also bring excellent products.
Look at it this way. The 1080 is the franchise of freestyle skiing. Also the 1080 boot is the best park/freeski/jib boot out there. And Salomon bindings have the best warranty on the market.
Now comes the 1080 Foil. A jib ski, a park ski and a free ski. This ski carves like biatch and it rips in chop too.
Love those skis. And I made sure to try my buddies PE's, Invaders and AR5's. All good skis but the Foils bring versatility to the table and that's wy I'm on Salomon this year....
One last thing, there are lots of comments about Salomon's being only good for lighter riders. I way 190 and they are fine.
