ofcourse, they are rockered.

also reverse side cut or i guess you could say tapered tips and tails
they arent that fat, maybe 100-110 max

186 ehp are pretty much all black and are rockered/spatula'd i think. completely different shape from the other two ehp's

I was in the 4frnt booth at SIA. The EHPs are almost completely black, are rockered like that, and have tapered tips and tails. Does Turpin even ski for 4frnt?

In any case, I'm pretty sure they are not prototypes. I admit I could be wrong.

ok


i watched the 4frnt SIA, the EHP are slightly reverse camber, and are tapered as much as these
i saw these skis IN PERSON and yes chris does ride for 4frnt
these skis have no logo or graphics and look like water skis, no round tips or tail

you are wrong

I would love to see a rockered ski with a 110 waist. I think it would make it so much more trick worthy.

the 186 ehp wasnt at SIA. they are testing them out right now and were a little bit ago. it's a completely different shape from the other 2. and it very well could have no topsheet yet as they are all just using them for the first time. but that's in the catalog for production later this year
