Why hate Salomon??

Just curious as to why people here hate Salomon. Have you had any personal experience that causes you to dislike their products or do you just hate them because they're a large ski-company and not a "core" manufacturer. I personally have ridden two models. I have ridden X-screams and was not impressed as the edges seemed very delicate. However, I've ridden a pair of Pocket Rockets for the last two seasons and they're awesome. Light, reasonable durable and good for almost anything. If you hate a company for a good reason that's reasonable otherwise it seems dumb imho.

i am a smaller person, so i went with the 720's due to their flex, and usuability with smaller people. Not to mention it is a great all mountain ski. Had I gone with line because of the cool graphics,i would have not been satisfied...
