humm maybe because they don't pay the skis ;) i heard somewhere they were like spancerized, sounds crazy no?
and they aren't underrated i think, since this guy Timmy Wallgreen is riding for them you can see amplid skis everywhere, even in France i can see them ;)

You could probably add praxis to the underrated skis list..

Very much the truth my friend; and the new topsheet construction for 08-09 makes them even more durable.

before they rode on amplids for free they all rode on other skis for free and then switched, because amplids are better

i really enjoy how surface skis ride. and i think this year any probs with construction should be eliminated. id assume they have a little more cash to work with now and i think they are about to blow up.

i really dont think there is such thing as an under rated ski company, because just about every company advertises on newschoolers and then everyone knows about them

This year Surface skis are made in the Signal Snowboards factory. This means no more delays in shipment, so they should be in stock on time. They are also redesigned and are MUCH more durable. All skis have sandwich construction, and they now have a rockered pow ski; I'm so excited!

Fuck sakes. I just left their site.
What a horrible thing to do to skiing. No wonder snowboarders make fun of skiers.

Boone to me just seems like more competition for moment.
I hope both companies do well but personally if Boone didnt pan out i wouldnt give a shit
If Moment doesnt make it im gonna be pissed though

Lol. Boone doesnt really compete with moment, but rather shares ideas with them.

ohhhhh I see
So since Boones are supposabley super durable does that mean my moment will feed off the boones duarabilty for their skiswont snap like my last pair which i broke hucking off a big ass wind lip.
I wouldnt really call Boone underrated they are just super new

I've heard that last season, moment had trouble with the materials they were getting, it was not their fault at all. Just a problem with who was sending them the materials - most unfortunate. (i think they even sued somebody over the issue.. but that might be just a rumour)
This season, I have heard nothing but good shit from them, and i'm sure they will be making some pretty high quality shit.
That said, boone makes pretty high quality shit too, so check out both companys! Tahoe represent!

volkls are underrated only for freeskis because they are bombproof, atleast from personal exxperience and the few people i've talked to
