word man I was just commenting on the revolution in our industry of late. After skiing the Prophet 130 every other ski feels like a twig. I went from 130s to the 100's and felt insecure like I was on a little ski or something.

I really want to check out the G-Funkensteins...

Me too....

except I really don't know how practical they are.

I love fat skis...but that is kind of pushing the limit.

My FFF are 118 in the waist and that seem perfect.

162 is ridiculous.

They are supposed to be ridiculously fun, though.

O....and my El Jefe are currently being made. So excited. Capital is the shit

There's some dude on Blackcomb, who's always up 7th heaven every weekend, who seems to have every model of Capitals... at least I've seen him on 3 different pairs. They look so bad ass.

No longer live in Boulder.....

I guess it is still home, but you'd have to come out to Tacompton to have that duel....

I'm pretty sure the Fats would just get tag teamed by the FFF and El Jefe =)

Sumos get really discoloured easily, and leather gets heavy

Salomon used to make brakes that had one arm longer than the other for staggered mounts on axioms/powder plusses ect. Because of that long arm you can get 2 sets of them, put them in the same brake, and you have a brake that when bent will fit over nearly any ski you want, including a 160 waist.

Or you could just weld extentions on if you can't get your hands on anything like that.

Not a twin, but quite possibly the best big-mountain ski I've ever ridden. If you're into just hauling ass and doing huge lines, that's the ski to have.
