Still getting bored of the 12 year old American kids who think Coreupt is dying because they don't see it well promoted in their home state. It's a Euro Company? Give them a few years, they're busy making money at home, once the foundations are set at home (this is only their third year I think) then they probably will try and push more for the U.S. market. I'd be interested to see figures but I imagine the Euro market draws more cash than the U.S./Canadian market anyway, and comparatively is a lot less saturated with indie companies so it is probably not a bad business move. Just shocks a lot of people to learn the world doesn't revolve around Team America. The bottom line is the skis are solid. Born to Drop is one of the best all round deep pow skis I have skied, couldn't believe at the size of the waste how well they held an age on wind buff etc.

Props on the logo.

And I agree just cause its a tiny company in North America, doesn't mean it's not successful in Europe.

I just rode my new Caspers for the first time today and they are ill. I've owned various lines and Ar6s and they put em to shame. So its obviously not the skis, must be the $$. But seriously, Kastle can have colby. Funny guy, but thats about it nowadays

aren't corrupt skis like $299 and shit?

And we wonder why they can't keep a roster? They probably have not enough cash to keep them interested in their brand.

Candide, one of the best skiers of all time.
Justin Dorey, one of the best actual pipe skiers.
Richard Permin, awesome freerider that has tons of style.
Dale Talkinton, one of the best up and comers in the industry.

just to name a few, get your facts straight.
