Isnt the buddha from one of the older gotama's? (Volk)


I think the fattest skis I have seen in person are the Kuro's. Faty-pus Alotta's are pretty fat also. Or two snowboards.

it might have been these or it might have been something else. But some really fat skis were made, but never really sold or anything.


also its all about 2 racing snowboards.

Ya but they sucks balls on groomers, so hard to get up on edge. It is stupid in person how fat they are. Just to give you a reference point the Gotamas to the left of it are 106 at the waist.

its called a mono ski,   no not the stuff the handcap people use.   between me and my dad we have 4 of them (1s a twintip but i never plan on going backwards)

i think every1 should look into buying one of them    its the best thing u will ever use in powder   works well on the groomed too.    took me about 1 day to learn how to ski it
