I think it's safe to say coreupt will be making their own skis soon.

Thats badass. They look like a ski that came out of the press before it got cut out... Anyone else notice the black FKS binders on the top pic? Probably an old pair in good shape but there is a chance that they might be coming back..

There have been reports from fairly credible sources that there will be a limited release next year - so it isn't completely unwarranted

UFO are a British hard rock/heavy metal band formed in 1969. UFO became a transitional group between early hard rock and heavy metal and the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. UFO's influence was strongly felt in the 1980s heavy metal scene and they have been cited as a primary influence of Steve Harris of Iron Maiden, Kirk Hammett of Metallica, Dave Mustaine of Megadeth, Frank Hannon of Tesla, and Mike McCready of Pearl Jam, among others.

Anyone else remember the North Face add - "Every turn is a sign of fear?"  well at 47 m. radius, I'd be terrified.

Take the longest Legend XXL ever made and 2 parts rocker and a heavy ballfull of testosterone - and you get a UFO.

i assume that double rocker would be the equivilent of a 2 stage rocker so just a tip rocker.
compared to a wakeboard's 3 stage rocker ala hellbent, ll2 etc..
