Not that I'm aware of.

Then again I know next to nothing about carving skis.

yes. i have seen some topsheets that differ from country to country. kinda shitty when you look at the catalogues from SIA and only select graphics are available in your country

Well a carving ski would be anything that isn't one of those fancy twin tippers, because twin tippers can't do that carving stuff :)

I know some companies have different top sheets for Europe than they have for America. Well I know Rossignol does. But I don't know about US vs Canada. But I know some retailers are able to order European models in America if they have a really good relationship with the company

clearly you have never experienced the fun of laying some extreme carves on firm corduroy ... most "new school" park groms don't have a good skiing foundation and may not appreciate this.

(I'm not accusing you of this, I am speaking in generalities)
