I'd really like to see him on Jskis, plus if you read his interview on the shred website he keeps hammering on about athlete led design maybe dropping hints? if not i reckon someone like 4front or moment they dont really have anyone in the comp scene if money is no issue

eddy9Rossignol, dynastar maybe atomic. They are all race based companies who can probably afford him. Also, with the exception of atomic, they are lacking in freestyle skiers.


I don't know a lot about Dynastar, and Atomic does have quite a great squad of skiers, but Rossignol has built from the bottom up, they have A B and C teams of younger riders (kids and teens) who show great potential to become excellent freestyle skiers. They might have the best team around in a few years, not sure if they'll be trying to pick him up or not.

Haha agreed.
But that is a solo project whereas the faction collective is the hole team where they allready have a lot of vesatile riders.

IMHO faction doesn't need wallisch.
But I'm done arguing I'll just wait and see...

I don't know if he would go to Atomic. Everyone I cant think on the ski team uses Atomic boots too. Would he make the switch from FT to Atomic boots? He was still using FT's and Markers on his alleged new skis, so that should week out a bunch of these guesses. This is all speculation.

I bet he goes to Batalla or Ramp!

I'm hoping that it'll be atomic, volkl, or Fischer, because all 3 of them have an amazing comp ski. Also, whichever one gets Tom will be stacked. Imagine Nick, Russ, and Tom, or Gus, Jossi, and Tom, or even Joss and Tom.

Alright, so i live and ski in perisher, Australia, and my friends and I saw tom skiing yesterday with a pair of line skis with the topsheet scratched off. Not like a stylistic scratched off but like he had gone to it with a rock or something.

This doesn't really add to the discussion, but this is what I saw and maybe someone can make sense in it.

Rossignol and Atomic both make boots and with what they'd have to shell out for Tom, they would want him on the whole set-up. And he's def not getting out of the Fulltilts,

Tom Wallisch is still with Scott at this point!! Look at his latest Instagram, the Scott logo is on the top of the poles so the white top sheet skis are most likely a prototype.

3:10, although they might be Scott skis, they're not prototypes as you can see, even when using a prototype he still slaps a Scott sticker on them.

He's still got his marker Bindings so that kinda rules out alot of companies... Those white skiis he is on in his instagram look wide in the tip, much like the vast majority of Line's skis. Second guess is K2 then Volkl.

The real question is how long will it take the unknown new ski sponsor to give him a pro model? More importantly, will it have a pretzel graphic?

No way in hell would Tom Wallisch would be picked up by Nordica, Head, Atomic, and Rossignol because then he would be forced to drop Full Tilt from his line of sponsors and rock their brand of boots. Also same deal with Blizzard and Dynastar, he would have to rock Tecnica or Lange boots instead of Full Tilt.

He doesn't seem to fit well with Line because Line is basically a team full of people who don't do competitions (except if you're Nils Lauper), and same thing with Armada (unless you're Torin Yater-Wallace or Devin Logan).*

*For those who seem those companies that I listed would've been a good fit.

If yall did your research you'd realize hes now riding for surface. I guess they are trying to take their team in a new direction. Hes on next years blanks in that video. Look at their website hes listed as on the team.
