I just picked up a pair of Salomon 1080s I think. Instead of saying 'ten eighty' they say 'four twenty' They were only $350 because of the graphic. Does any one know the story behind this stoner inspired renaming. And if there are any other changes to the ski.

ps. I know they come with an all black base instead of the clear graphical base.

^ or not.

T420, thats wicked, now you can go out and screw with everyone's minds at your local hill, tell them they are next years or something.
Without skiing we are just monkeys with car keys.

I asked the guys at Salomon, and yeah it was a special edition ski sold in the US.

We're trying to get them to send us a pair to give out as a prize...





Apparently, I'm the most sold out person in history.

Yeah guys i just got a pair a couple of weeks ago. Thy do say 420 on them, they are the same screen print, and the bases are black. I was talking to a Solomon rep and he said that the 420's are basicly the same ski as 1080 except for somthing different in the core. He said that the 420's are only really sold to the "big box" stoe like Gart (where i picked mine up.
