I was just half jokin. Every year at SIA there's some new boot that's gonna "change the game" but never does. Was kinda making a joke from that aspect.

i'm not sure what the new icelantic theme is. i was in their office in denver this week and the new skis look nice. the 2012 danollies looked like they had some sort of ancient Egyptian type graphic on it.

Yo guys this just in, no pics but bdog let me put on one of his brand new signature gloves when we were standing together in the athlete section at the bottom of big air, they are all white with a black armada logo on the palm, and a black bdog logo on the velcro strap, super comfortable and flexy for grabs.

personally i love them, they look fucking rad, and i will definitely pick up a pair

and to anyone asking about the the rockers
they are moving their line up into a more all mountain setup
the ones that were shown in the video are the rocker 115's, hybrid rocker, and it a tad more stiff, but still they are fun as fuck
then the rocker 122's i believe are going ot have the same ski design as this year
the rocker 112's i think are the 2012's still have rocker
and then some more i forgot what the rep said about

the shoguns will be come rockered the year after this one so, if that shall be a fun ski too

I didn't enjoy holding this binding. it feels like a TON of plastic and looks pretty flimsy. Also, the plate that holds down the heel-piece actually moves while still being screwed in (if that makes any sense), once the gap unde the plate fills with ice of snow you won't even be able to click it back into alpine mode.

looks like a piece of shit honestly..

All of the skis look super sick. I really dislike the AR7 graphic. It looks really like 80s or something. My 2010/11 AR7s have the best AR7 graphic so far imo. The Halo... DO WANT

The whole point of the throwback graphic is armada's ten year anniversary so they are using a similar graphic tot that og the OG ar5

Anyone know the deal with lines women skis? Specifically the new pandora? I'm wondering if it's still based off the old bacons or if they updated it off the new bacon design? Or have they created something new that would be between the pandora and the celeb100? The wife just wrecked her skis and is either gonna get new ones now or stick with her old ones for the rest of the season if something stellar is coming out next season. Actually info on any company putting out a women's freestyle/all mountain/quiver of one would be appreciated.

What kind of snow does she ski most of the time? My girlfriend rides Surface's My Life and loves them. They're the female powder ski for Surface 100 waist, slight rocker in tip and tail, with camber underfoot. She carves ice and slays powder like none other on them, they come in a 160 and 170.

I've also heard crazy good things from females about Armada's TSTw, that might be worth looking into!

Thanks dude. She demoed the vjj last year and wasn't real into it. She claimed it took too much effort for her to drive. Looked like she was doin fine on em to me but peeps got their preferences I guess. She really dug the pandora but not that theyre wrecked she's thinking of something a touch slimmer and stiffer. More versitile. But I dunno, she's a woman so tomorrow she will want somethin completely different. Haha

So for next year, we have a bunch of the same boot mold, with different colors! Oh, and these ones are more expensive because they have metal buckles that don't break less...

full tilt is trying way to hard with their designs. they need to keep it original like they have in the past. the 2010 line was the best and so original

i'm sure wu-tang would have been thrilled to know back when they started that their music would become iconic with 13 year old upper middle class suburban white skiers all across the nation

there is nothing "wu-tang" about skiing, stop with it already, it's fucking stupid
