I was wondering if anyone knew when the scratch pro would be avalible in the us. I have found it on some french websites for like $550 plus like $150 in shipping. Should i just go ahead and get the 2012 scratch or wait for the pro? Would it be here in time for opening day?

you might want to check the sizes of the scratch pro. back when the scratch series started (before rossignol ran with the S series), the scratch pro was the junior/teen ski.

originally the scratch pro came in 138, 148, 158cm sizes

exactly as thought...

Rossignol Scratch Pro Skis - Youth 2012
138, 148, 158
$329.95 at evo.com --> http://www.evo.com/skis/rossignol-scratch-pro-youth.aspx


Rossignol Scratch Skis 2012
167, 174, 181
$499.95 at evo.com --> http://www.evo.com/skis/rossignol-scratch.aspx

the scratch is the pro model while the scratch pro is a junior version of the pro model.

if you are actually looking for the scratch pro... it's a great ski for a lighter, younger, shorter skier. I rode my pair of scratch pro fs for three seasons all over the mountain and the edges are still in amazing condition. actually, I still use them on occasion in the spring when I want a softer ski than my wall's.

and you may have noticed that model isn't even on the american site. guessing it is a limited run as a kevin rolland and xavier bertoni pro model as well as a rossignol x followus.tv collab topsheet.

if you have to have that model, it will cost you extra and possibly shipping from france. in reality though, the only difference is the topsheet. the dimensions and construction are the exact same as the scratch.
