Just saw this on Torin's facebook. Click for larger image

Next years Pipe Cleaner or I was thinking a TYW Pro as he has been basically only been using prototypes this summer from what I've seen.

This is just one of the oakley outfits. Simon dumont and Tanner Hall no longer have their own pro rider series anymore. The new pro rider gear is for Kai Mahley and Richard Permin.

Yeah you're fucking retarded. We've already seen tanner's pro rider series and he has confirmed it.

Not saying its true but it would actually make sense to have Kai at least replace tanner if they want to continue with the Rasta themes

The funny thing is though if Oakley were to ever drop Tanner I am most certain they would use a huge following crowd. So if they drop him he will just go over to his own outerwear (Armada) and make himself a pro model. Sure Tanner isn't too worried about not having gear lol

You're delusional if you think it would even make a dent in Oakley's balance sheet.

But you said "huge following crowd" implying they would lose lots of money and/or street cred. Red Bull felt nothing when they dropped Tanner and neither would Oakley if it came to it.

Tanner doesn't hold the same reputation he did 8 years ago...or 4 years ago even when he was injured for that matter. Oakley could drop Tanner and not even blink

Because some people would like to ski in their rockered sole or WTR boots.....this lets them adjust for that.

The STH2 releases at DIN for boots with either traditional Alpine or licensed WTR (Walk to Ride) soles. So the WTR sole blocks that Solly makes for their Quest series release at DIN, in every lateral toe ejection. This is due to plastics sliding over the AFD (anti friction device).

However, boots with semi rockered or vibram soles such as the Tecnica Cochise or Scarpa Freedom will not release at DIN. The rubber in these soles causes more friction than a DIN release would call for. You can fit them into the binding however because STH2s accommodate their BSH (boot sole height).

Then boots like the Scarpa Maestrale or Dynafit Vulcan won't fit at all. Not sure if you can stuff them into the binding. Forget about releasing at DIN.

At the moment, the other alpine binding to accommodate fully rockered soles is the Marker Lord SP, supposedly. Haven't heard enough about that binding.

I don't know what about this new toepiece makes it capable, yet. Waiting patiently for SIA (:

It is no longer the anthem platform. It has both tip and tail rocker and much softer than the anthem. It is still capped construction though.

I could be wrong, they could be Caylors...but they look slightly different to me (shape wise, not topsheet), just different enough to be something new.

Good eye there, I didn't see it until I looked a bit closer. Could definitely be a prototype for the new Caylor replacement, has a slightly different shape from the looks of it
