Skis are sooo sick, anyone know what they might retail for? Like compared to the invader/Bacon.

Also, anyone know if the Lizzy will come in longer than 172 this year? a 178 would be tasty..

yeah the whole point is that the bacon is essentially the same ski as the lizzy just in a longer length.. the lizzy serves more as Pollard's park ski and the bacon more of his bc jib ski.

agreed.  Our reps demos were mounted and hungout in our shop for a little over a week.  I made love to each set on my breaks and on my lunch.  The motherships are fuckin TANKS.

the lizzy and bacon are a very different ski
different flex, and everything

quite?

the blend are arent as stiff as a prophet but they are perfect and ski amazing. they dont have any metal. they changed the blend to a full side wall construction and made it 100mm underfoot which is perfect. i absolutely loved the way they ski and they look amazing.

have you ridden both of them?
ive ridden the bacons, its a stiffer ski than the bacon.
my friend has the beths, the flex compared to my thugs is about the same.
flex compared from thugs to bacons is different though, the bacon was a stiff ski.
even though the thug is as soft as butter, i didnt find the bacons as fun
