who gives a shit? they are still getting the company name out and at the end of the day that is what really matters.

Salomon is just to high end. I wish freeskier focused more on up and comers, and more core aspects of the sport rather than having the same 10 skiers sharing the photos with a few exceptions.

I think we should notify the government. This is an injustice to readers!

OK you got me but the point I was trying to make is skiing is like a drug and we are so addicted that we notice when ski magazines have the tiniest little mess ups.

As far as you know, Salomon could be trying some really wierd marketing aimed at getting the attention of all the people that have nothing better to do with their life than analyse photos of dumont? Then they go and buy Salomon?
