Rossi is getting raped. I won't put the nail in the coffin until they lose Sage.

Dynastar is owned by rossi too right? Because Dana Flahr has also apparently left them and is on Atomic. That is different though.

Damn that's sweet for Atomic, both Hatveit and Dana rip! Rossi better hold on to JF Houle and Sage and Kye, that's really all they have left.

thats too bad. i think rossi makes solid products, but their marketing program is pretty lousy. if i were the CEO of the quiksilver group or whoever the fuck owns rossi/dynastar, i'd fire their freeride marketing director (if there is one) and hire somebody 40 years younger who knows their customer base.

actually they have relatively younger people than you think...

and last i heard, kye was borderline because rossi wanted him to change a little bit. but i could be wrong about this

By the way, they did not re-signed me either...I'm not with Rossi anymore!
They pretty much screw my season! But I don't care because Skiing is my life and I will keep pushing the sport!
I really don't know what are they doing...?
Their image is Pure Mountain compagnie now I guess! A bunch of freerider + Xavier and Keven that's it!
I lost so much respect for them! Since they did that with so many people in the last couple years.
Peace

sorry for some reason i thought rainville wasnt on it anymore... vanular isnt though.

probably because the company that owns dynastar, rossignol and coreUPT decided to put all there team expenses to coreUPT i dont care what you people say, coreUPT is owned by big corporations.

yeah quicksilver really fucked up when they took over...........but they no longer own rossignol(thank god).  Some Australian company is in charge now, and  Supposedly they are dedicated to getting rossi back to the top of the game.

Rossi was never a good brand anyways.  they had really good skiers but there stuff was always shit.  I don't really care what happens to them.  I'm glad for the riders who have left because now they have found a company who will get them way better gear.  I'm totally pumped for Benchetler being on Atomic though!  Now the whole Nimbus crew has a personal ski.  Benchetler- Bent-Chetlers, Eric Pollard- EP Pro, SFB, and Elizabeth, PepFujas- Kung Fujas, and Andy Mahre- Hellbent.  That's so awesome!  I cannot wait to see what Atomic gets to be in the next few years.  They came out of no where in the freestyle scene.

Yeah, you're right.  I'm really bummed that K2 gave Fujas such a skinny ski.  I wish they would ahve at least given him something in the 115mm range.  Whatever.  Yeah last year the Hellbent was the only ski I EVER saw Pep on.  At least they got rid of that stupid Fujative, most pointless pro model ever, Pep never used it.  Actually in the IDEA Park City part, he might have used it hitting that one jump.  Sorry to go off topic.

This is great news for both companies, Atomic will rival Salomon pretty quick in being "the" freestyle company, and its good for Rossi to focus on what they do best; if Rossi thinks big mountain is there expertise then power to them.

Rossi should of told riders this awhile ago, or helped them find new sponsors.
