07 and 08 Dumonts have the SAME graphics. Because mr. Dumont wanted them to be.

chili thom. hes an artist based out of whistler. his artwork is amazing. i was so stoked when the dumonts came out and they had a chili thom graphic. just like the ANT's last year, the pic on that ski was a painting by madsteeze, the dumont is an actual painting by chili thom. check out his website, just google his name.

Is there a difference in next years apart from coming in different sizes. This seems kind of dumb, as he 176 won't have any difference apart from maybe somehow checking with serial numbers or whatever

im not positive, but i heard the difference is that the 07s have a wood/foam mixed core, with a wood stinger in the center, and the 08s are going to have an all wood core.

wow... once i looked at the painting that the dumonts are based on - they make so much more sense. I think I like them more now that I understand what's going on. The full painting is sick looking.

You know what?

Simon Dumont is quite simply the worst there is in skiing. I'm just brarely grasping how he could be so boring to watch.

And talk about a stack of sponsors! Salomon and Oakley!

What a joke.

you're, not your.

you kind of missed the mark on that one, though. i don't remember ever typing that they are the only ones that matter.


but hey! throw in some giro bad ass lieutenants, red bull, and target, and you've got the essence of skiing.

my hate for simon dumont is immense. i can't... ugh.

it's a bit unfounded, too. but he's got an attitude that makes me want to rip his soul out through his rib cage. his skiing doesn't do it for me much, either.

anyhow, this thread isn't about my hate for him. it's about a salomon ski graphic. proceed!

Just go to Sushi Village in Whistler and look around, you'll see a lot of Chili's paintings on the walls, then you'll get it.

While you're there, pound some Strawberry Sake slushies, and tip the bartenders.

you just can't ughh? ughh what? decide why you hate him? hate is a strong word, especially if you don't even know the person.
anybody that says they "want to rip his soul out through his rib cage" needs some serious counseling, i feel bad for you.

but I guess it is easy to hate somebody that ski's better than you, makes more money than you, and gets more women than you.

Jealousy is a bitch huh?

awww, now don't you fret about my mental health.

you newschoolers are all so caring and compassionate!


jealousy might bother me if i wanted to get sponsored by salomon and red bull and target, but i'm actually really happy i'm not. i would be a bit embarrassed if i was him.

i suppose you could say that the bitch is in the cage.

as for women, i'm happy with myself. just got back from a long walk along the river with a cute girl. cool!

woah, to think the internet is so in tune with simon dumont's sex life. well, you guys sure do love your pro skiers!
