was in the option factory in vancouver and saw all of 4frnt's new graphics. they all look pretty sick. big fan of the msp's and the tnk's. the tnk's are like a pair of jeans with one ski for a leg and then come together up the top. pretty out thtere. msp's are sick too. for all the different sizes there is a different graphic. like one for winter, spring, autumn... pretty cool. a mountain sort of setting if you ask me. i thought a factory that made boards/skis would just be machines but most of it is all hands on work. sick.

Park/Pipe. They looked to have less sidecut than the STLs, but I couldn't get a real close look.

what did you think of the MSPs? If you see them again, you should see if you can find the hidden messages on the beach on the 160 and on the base of the moutain and in the trees on the 180.

You are correct, they are the Karlstroms. Next year's VCT looks ill...

I hear there's an EHP in the works...

The 193 EHP is 113mm waist full vertical sidewall two metal laminants, not for newschoolers I'm afraid.

The 190 EHP is last years 190 VCT with a bigger tail and is much more user freindly then the 193.

The TNK is the new pricepoint twin it comes in under the STL at $399 MSRP I beleive. It is a pretty lame graphic admittedly.

The Gold ones mentioned are the new 183 STLs.

The new MSPs and VCTs look beautiful in person and are unchanged structurally.

193 has no metal in it. Thicker core, extra fiberglass. Metal bends = no good.
