I heard from a pretty good source that Elan actually makes (not designs) Line skis... can anyone confirm or deny this?

Elan has the biggest ski making capicity than any other ski company, Elan gets contracts from companys like Rossignol line and maybe Armada (im not sure about that one) and who knows what other companys, the thing is that just because they were made in a Elan factory doesnt make them Elans it the same ski as one that was made in the other factorys, its not a big deal

Elan made a line racing ski, it's basically a elan ski with dodgy line graphics.

elan does produce a huge amount of equipment for the ski industry. They dont make Line. Line skis are made in Cowansville quebec, whereas Elan is constructed in SLOVENIA, NOT AUSTRIA. The reason elan makes skis for other companies is due to the fact that their cost of production is so much cheaper because their factories are within the former borders of the eastern bloc, ie the soviet union, ie russia, for you uneducated mofos out there.

Would you not buy Line skis anymore if they were made by Elan or something?

Line is not made by Elan. Armada hascontracted out of the Elan factory in slovenia. Armada is the company your thinking about that is made by elan which is a big improvement form this years skis. Next years Armadas are a better and cleaner looking product than this years.

Oh yeah, well DEFFI skis are designed by mad scientists and contructed by disgruntled postal workers!

man, elan makes good quality equipment. The only reason you guys dont like their stuff is cause they dont have a crazy pro team and dont put forth an image based product.

actually its because they don't have a solid twin tip, they may make outstanding race skis, but that doesn't mean shit on this website.

^isn't that the same factory that makes Defy Skeez as well, or are those made in that super secret lab in the coast mountains that I keep on hearing about? Where's CJ when you really need him to answer something?

I heard Aramda are made by Zoopla, a canadian snowboard manufacturer. Could be old news, or they may have changed manufacturers.
