Its the SPK, and the other is supposed to be a Target logo...

Also fans of Mike D commentary should check out the Salomon SIA video (Resources -> SIA 2007): "A little 'r-ass-ta' configuration, there, but you guys...say no to drugs. Keep it real, keep it clean." - On the Flyers

I heard from some one at the us open
that those "target signs" on the new spk
are supposed to halfpipes
whichs makes sence cause theres never overly a full circle on the ski.
and it is there pipe ski..

I don't think its related to the store target at all. Now if it was on the dumonts, then it might be. But for it to actually be an add for target id think they want it to say target and have the full sign...

the target sign has the middle circle filled in, the skis dont have the middle circle filled in, they are not related.

Ok yeah...its clearly not identical to the Target logo, but that's why its so strange... I mean, Salomon doesn't exactly put a great deal of effort into their graphics, so why would they choose something really fucking close to a Target logo? They could have put any other thing in the world, but they had to choose that.

How is it patriotic? No flag, not even blue. Maybe to Canada...

I do believe there is some blue at the tip...and even if its not blue, from far away it will look blue, thus making it look red, white, and blue. like I said, yuk.
