New company out of Burlington. Really want to try a pair, I have seen the prototypes in person and they look sick.

They cannot spell, and their skis are pricy for proto status, and they have 18mm of camber... that's lots of tip grip

HellBent colors are wrong in that picture. The ski is bright ass deer-hunter blaze orange. As Collin Collins calls them, "The HellBilly"

awesome. also to Pollard's new ski: White powder skis aren't a good idea, so easy to lose them on a hard bail

^^I'm digging the pants, I like the earthy colour. I like the jacket styles, hopefully there are come more colours to come out though, something of a brighter earthy tone..

So Causwell has absoulutely no desire to see to anyone other than people who are concerned with zipper length for the maximum amount of steeze?

Lolz. Yes those are fitted articles of clothing. I like stuff like that.

I can't tell if you're being sassy or not...but that is just Pollard's line, I'm sure they'll have the big stuff as well next year.

I saw it yesterday and flexed it. Feels like a medium stiff flex, bit softer in the nose. Would absolutely kill it for an all mountain tool.

So technically, they might not be ORANGE. But they make the snow glow, so they are bright. And provide nice contrast between the white snow and other natural shades possible in a winter alpine environment... this was kinda the point.

Don't know if anybody has heard but liberty is bringing out a new park ski in 2012, carn't remember the name but it's symetrical and got regular camber with rocker also. Could be good.

Sure the base appears to emanate an orange color, but the snow looks fucking green.
Red base.

I think they were an even 200 at the waist... maybe 210. I don't quite remember. Either way, they are stupid, and I want them... I could use a good slalom snowboard.
