Not including custom skis (this is directed at you Iggyskier) what do you think is the best ski company based on the performance, durability, graphics etc...

why else would we have em if we didnt think they were the best? but other than line...uh no ski company other than line is more diverse in their ski making (and all of them are good!!!). K2 might be a contender, or salomon. I dont like salomon though, i tried their skis. Atomic, I hate. I skied them a lot before i skied line.

IMO - K2. overall, the make the best of any major company out there.
Volkl is up there as well.

dynastar has pretty dope skis, bindings, and boots aswell..
but in terms of skis alone, probably k2 skis cover the most territories and are crazy durable. the seths have dope ass graphics aswell

Armada. Tehy have the highest quality, and for all you line skiers the line rep for canada said that armada had the highest quality, even better than line.

Head, Rossignol, K2, and Volkl are all good companies, it's impossible to label one as the best.

Volkl. They have the nastiest everything in my opinion. Race skis to Park skis to powder skis. I mean, Karmas are amazing, 5stars and 6stars are incredible, and the got and sumo? I can just imagine how amazing they are. And the explosiv's, godam; My first and favorite ski.

-Rossignol
Everything I want in a twin tip, for a reasonable price (compared to stuff like armada and 4frnt). Not to mention, the bindings. I mean I don't think you can go wrong with rossignol.

they make the prophet 100's. And the prophet 130's and the elizabeths and the motherships for big mountain. BC booters would be elizabeth too. And they used to make good carving skis (darkside). Just to let everyone know. Over all their years, they have skis for everything. I can even race in my darksides, but theyre not as good.

They are insane. Fast, Stiff, and they throw you down the mountain. I love them. I wish they were making them next year.

Maybe Im misunderstanding the "overall ski company" aspect of this thread but I don't understand how companies such as Line, or Armada fit very well into this catagory? When they really only make twins? Or by overall are you suggesting graphics, durability ect...
