the dumonts are ugly. but i would like to see how they ski. are they entirely park specific?

i would guess more park then all mountian because it mentions a different sidecut so they could be mounted more centered. a pipe ski maybe? maybe not, to much sidecut

Are you going to be able to feel your skis through all that padding?

im not feeling the skis or the boots. bad graphics on the ski, and the boots got that rental shop style to it with the 2 buckles.

those boots look like rentals?! are you a retard?? you don't buy a fucking boot based on looks just like you wouldn't buy a ski on looks solely...they're gonna be so damn comfy by the look of it and i bet they're gonna be between $400-$500 canadian

the toe box on normal boots isn't all the comfortable. i'm guessing since it says it has a roomier toebox, that that would be the feature...

He means the apex of the sidecut, or the narrowest part of the ski(waist), is farther forward because the mounting point he wants is near center or center. Most skis the waist is back from center.
The next couple years more and more skis are gonna be like this, some already are(elizabeths, invaders, stl's)

I think the dumonts will be noodles. It says they are even softer than the thrusters.

From what I've heard on people who have been using the SPK, they thing is amazing. I'm almost positive I'm going to ride this boot next season...unless it's really uncomfortable on my foot...

the boots could be good, but they have to go and mess it up by only making 2 buckles.
