i meant mainly the dimensions, 155 in tail=not possible, and that price is so low i doubt its possible unless the suspect is a price point ski

there is no way they are going to sell that cheap, most thrusters in canadian stores were around 500$ this year, and sth 12's were like 150-200, atleast in stores in my area

how can they be 122/86/155? doesn't that seem a little too fat in the tail? it's probably 115 at the least maybe a little more but no way that fat in the tail it would be impossible to ski

and says "dumont" on it somewhere, which will probably make it like $100 more.

i wonder if that means simon will be using suspects in the pipe, because they'd be lighter without the extra edge armor- which he wouldn't need anyway.

^^ i doubt that, ur sure he didn't mean the dumonts?

if it's true though theres no way i'm getting those... i'd never pay over 400 for a park ski
sucks too cause that was like my #1 choice for next year

its illegal to do that. that may be the msrp but they cant force the retailer to sell it at that price.

THERE IS NO MINIMUM RETAILERS CAN SELL SOMETHING FOR!!!! its called the mSrp that S stands for suggested. they cant force someone to sell something for a certain price...... however they could make it so that its not profitable to sell for less depending on what they sell to the shop for. but they cant force them to do anything.

there is a minnimum advertised price for retailers.  The dumont is stiffer in the tail.  The Suspect retails for $650 and minnimum advertised is $499.
