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.

O'Neill is so on point, this pullover makes me so stoked to buy it, it reminds me of bedsheets at my grandmas spare room. Really nostalgic and tasteful, beautiful jacket. I might have to get this

I hate to burst this bubble as I also wish it were true, but unfortunately it's just not true. 14 din FKS/Pivots will keep the same toe piece.

Links for 14/15 Dynastar/Look and Rossignol catalogs below. They do have the colors for the new 12 din models though; black/white for the FKS, and blue/green/white colorway as already posted in this thread for the Look.

Damn...guess I shouldn't trust people drinking at trade shows, haha.

Seriously though...Look/Rossi should really consider changing up the toe on the 14 DIN version, they'd sell so many more of them.

I fucking wish. But it would probably cut into the sales for the 18 din bindings too much.

Maybe 15/16? One can only hope...

Salomon needs to go back to making outerwear like the gsuit and magic suit. But with better waterproofing. Wearing my g suit pants feels like I'm wearing paper towels they absorb water

Recoil evolved into the new 92 waisted version. We aimed to keep all the same performace that embodied the Recoil but expand the dimesnions slightly to reflect the fact people are skiing wider skis for street and park. We've also adjusted our size run with the new ski. Rather than the normal 10cm size breaks we've had for awhile, it now comes in 184cm, 177cm, 170cm and 163cm.

True to length and we kept the same flex as that is what the team prefered.

just like the apex boots. every person at SIA on snow hated them except really old guys that ski groomers lol.

I like the way the technology is going to make ski boots comfier but in all reality if the boot fits it will be comfy... They're definitely getting in that novice old guy department though

Agreed. Those and Apex boots look like they would have terrible performance. If you hate ski boots so much, don't ski.

Not hating on the Floral, just saying they could have implemented a little more creativity and thought into it instead of slapping it on a black jacket

Fuck yes they are, you might be joking but the truth is they are the only brand thats keeping with the trends that skateboard/snowboard follow.
I'm so happy with that jacket, only armada jacket I would buy in so long.
