Dear moment skis

I just want you guys to know I am having a moral crises.
At the start of the season, no one knew who the hell you were. By the end of the season, everyone did. I am all about supporting the grassroots, the startups, the rad little company that just needs some exposure, and the style heavy top sheet. You were all of those things and more to me...

I started to understand quickly that as you grew, I would have to move on. Find another company. One that needs my dollars more than you.

BUT HOW WILL I SKI WITHOUT SQUARE TIPS? HOOWWWWW!?!??!?!!??!

Round tips just look funny to me now.

Remember the capita board that had the double swallow tail, but they werent too deep?
you should put that on your rockers. that would be a sick look and decrease swing weight.

Meanwhile,

 You've trapped me, I crave the blunted tips. Now I have no choice but to buy more of your skis, and more, and more, and more, untill one day... the addiction kills me.

thanks a lot jerks!

Gahh, I feel that way too. But I really, really, really want a pair of Anthems, despite how amazing Moments graphics are next year.

DOS Mediaa will have most of the Moment riders in their movie, and Bibby is filming with Level 1 this year (spot the logo at the bottom of the site?).

And to the guy comparing Tahoes & Rubys, I'd go Rubys. Best ski I've ever skied, and despite the width, it can handle pretty much everything.

Dear Moment,
You guys got me sooooo drunk at IF3. Way to sneak a keg into the theatre. I really want a pair of your skis next year but I'm not willing to give Dave an H-J.

Love,
Mike

P.S. Let's hang out this summer Dave! (no H-J's)
