...Take a lap.

And he didn't leave salomon, salomon left him. He got in some credit card trouble, and I guess they had to drop someone...

i believe he was the one that left salomon
it was in the november or october issue of freesiker
and it said that it was because salomon was becoming less and less friendly too its athlets so peter left them because he felt things were not working out for him on salomon

come on man, is this rumor still going around, read freeskier, use the search bar, they did not drop him, he left them. They were not given his the support he needed.

he is correct

he stole a girl's credit card who worked at the ski tour (the registration girl i think) and ran up a 1500 tab on it.  he thought it was a funny joke but then he realized that he is not funny and that he is a jackass.  then he got dropped from salomon.  make no mistake about it, he did not leave salomon.  you don't leave that kind of money on the table in our industry.  there isn't that much to go around in skiing.

big company=big money for petey. plus i really think nordica are getting their shit together as far as freeski goes- their 08 line looks ok, they are building a pretty ace pro team and their boots are great...

so i guess the question is why not nordica?

I have been riding Nordica boots this season and they are by far the best boot I have ever ridden. Never ridden their skis though.
