I heard all kinds of talk of C.R. going to 4frnt and some of Armada but the picks on his update posts are all on foils. I take he still rides for solly.

I can't imagine that salomon would drop him, although I could be totally mistaken.

yep they did. He's been riding 4FRNT for the past year. However, he might not actually be on the team.

Q: Im looking for some new skis for next season. I like to ride park alot and i also love jumps and powder and cliffs so im pretty much looking for a ski that can go anywhere at an affordable price what are your suggestions for a good ski?
    - Andy Cowley , 15, Layton
A: I have looked for a similar ski that you are talkng about, too. I just started skiing the Vincent Dorion promodel from 4FRNT, and it is great for all aspects of skiing. I have skied it in the park and it is good. I just took it into some big lines and drops in the back country, and it worked amazing. That is the ski you are looking for. CR
    - CR Johnson

this is straight from the spyder web site heres the link too.

^ dude, calm the fuck down. those pictures are not very recent are they... the thread about him bneing dumped and picked up by 4frnt are maybe a month old. yea he was skiing foils this WINTER after he recovered but as far as any of us know hes on 4frnt. so dont be jumping to conclussions and spassing at people when you havent heard all the facts, and your the one who created the thread and was asking if he might have been dropped in the first place.

hey dumbass, think before you talk fool. So I guess when I was chilling at his house last week he was lying. And I guess he just painted over his salomons with 4FRNT logos all year. That makes sense though, CAUSE I'M SURE YOU KNOW

stfu, I don't care if you chill at his house, C.R. is the man but that doesnt make you anything, and your statement is wrong, no matter whos house you chill at. C.R. has not been skiing on 4frnts for the past year.

I think 4frnt is a good fit for CR. I think the style of the company fits him well, and he gets reunited with his ol' salomon teamate Vinnie D!

He rides for 4frnt now. On what level who knows. He does not get anywhere near the same contract dollars as he had with Salomon.

can he still ski well?

I haven't heard anything about him really since the injury. And did they get it on film? Is it in a video or did they not show it?

hahahahaha, "my little immature opinion of the world", what the hell are you talking about. Your statement is still not true, he has not been on 4frnt for the last year. I dont care if your friends with C.R. or not your acting like a fag.

i read this interview he did and he said he wasnt skiing pipe to well again it just wasnt coming back to him how he wanted. He was good but not at the level for competing.

and i think his wreck is kinda sorta filmed.. like in the part of show and prove where everyone is skiing and the shot fades, i herd it was just after that, but you couldnt see anything.. but its kinda good that no one showed it.

I think TJ is spot on with this info. I think the part he is talking about is (and this is in the trailer i'm pretty sure) when it shows a bunch of guys riding down throught the pow, and the filmer is behind them and it's kind of a roller section and there is like 5 dudes bombing it. I think CR went over one of the rolls or a drop or something and Kye came up after him. So yea I don't think it really shows it on film, and even if it did I don't think I would want to see it.

I Know CR was hitting pipe not really that long after the accident, but I am pretty sure he was given the warning that if he hit his head again within a year or two it would be very serious. So who knows, maybe he is just taking it easy still. Neverthless, he was an amazing skier and I am 100% he can still rip shit up like a mofo.

4Frnt and why not, they make thier skis so strong you really need to be a strong skier to ride them. different skis in different lengths can help even a new skier but they are strong shit

i herd they did after his accident and then took him back.. but im not 100% on that, i think it couldve been a rumer floating around..

4FRNT would be a great company for CR becasue he would get a pro model the next yar i bet and he could be more independent.
