Who are these folks? A small Japanese company?
Also, can I say again how this graphic looks suspiciously like the Moment Comi? Here's a link to it:

right now this is me taking your feed back into consideration.....one of my friends made that graphic..moment skis are cool...the only similarity I see is the comi symbol

comis? they wear those funny hats

the ski has been around since the 70,s i belive...there is this other company and team that have skis available in the U.S.A.

But since that is the ONLY thing on the ski, it's a pretty big similarity. Essentially it is the same design in white instead of black with the tank removed.
Don't get me wrong though, I love the design, even with the plain white tips that people seem not to like. I think the plain white is classy and understated, especially compared to all the skis out there with gaudy, busy looking designs.
If people think white tips are too boring, may I suggest fading the white into a pattern or something? Like, the old Skogens were white that faded to brown at the tipe with a sort of argyle pattern, it looked very classy.
