Bring em back! Proabably the best name for skis ever. And their fun skis. Anyone else pissed?

Suspect, Threat,

or THRUSTERS.

foam cores are shit
i say leave them in the grave

and to the guy that had speed wobbles, thats because of the core and the length. they may have been too small, but a foam core is often softer and will bounce around much more.

I like the name thruster too, but the thing salomon should have kept is the Dumont they had for the 07 and 08 season. those were the best skis ever made! not the best durability, but the riding was incredible

they were super light, and felt good in the pipe.

the flex is weird on them when they're new, like you have to break that ski in.
