yea the tail is of a interesting design, and the curled nose is designed to bust threw the deep snow. Looks like a interesting ski

exactly.

Its 120mm in the waist, comes in 187, 197, 207, and the split in the tail is there for a removable rudder to be put in, like a centerboard in a small sailboat. Think fin on a surfboard.

PS its supposedly built in the Fischer race room.

dude, normally i wouldnt argue, but watch that vid bro. there is clearly some different shit going on there in terms of metal in the construction and some new tail design.
who the fuckknows if its any good, but dont be petulant for the sake of it.

video looks like something from the fisher marketing department, but looks like a unique design regardless.

If you were skiing switch and hit someone you'd probably impale them, that rear tip looks deadly.
