Those are hand made in China by an american guy who moved there with his entire family so he could afford to set up his own factory from scratch. Made in China isn't always a bad thing.
TheGnarwhalAnything over 130 underfoot is totally unnecessary.. If you need 150/160 underfoot to float in pow, you're doing it wrong..
Arbitrary and wrong, maybe it's 138 or 141 or 153?. Got any data to support that statement? I skied Silverton recently, brought my Liberty Genomes 141 underfoot. Head of Snow Safety and Ski Patrol walks up and asks "whose skis are those?" "Mine." "You brought the right skis". But perhaps someone knows better than him? Love it when the guy on 105's says the Genomes are ridiculous, useless and unnecessary, especially after you ask them what the fattest skis they've ever skied on were. Um, I skied 115's once.....Haters gotta hate, spewing ignorance has become a badge of honor for some.....that is unnecessary and unfortunate.
At 181 underfoot with a swallow tail design, may not be the fattest, but pretty unique and interesting. Would love to ski them.
Did a ski demo day with Volle at Snowbird back in 1992 or 1993 and they had all these crazy fat ski designs we helped with R&D testing, most were super short and very wide. We loved them and thought it was the future. BUT/ They never hit production. Maybe a decade or two too early.
