so recently i went to a sports store just cause it was on the way of going somewhere... i always buy my skis at local ski shops or online so i don't really ever buy them at big brands that sell everything like sport chek and stuff so i was curious at what skis the store sold.
I go into the place and find the skis i'm like okay sweet they sell faction, atomic, icelantic, 4frnt ETC.. then im like wait a second wtf, i see a shit ton of already mounted skis and random skis i go over and there is like this ski company called meire or something and im like okay prolly just a small brand then i see a pair of atomic bent chetlers and beside them are another pair but the other pair is probably like 78 underfoot and the graphics look like a 2 year old copy and pasted them on them cause they were all squished.!then i saw a pair of 4frnt crjs mounted with some binding company called like 1st descent or something and they are mounted center and the tips are probably 140 width and the tails like 100 width.. along with some boots that were obvious copy of full tilts called one degree, an atomic ski called vantage point that looked like the infamous but red graphics. sorry im writing this on mobile btw.
So can someone tell me or give me a clue as to why its like that?
I have also heard stories from other people that sport chek sells skis super cheap like 400$ for ski and binding for example a ski like the k2 press.
this makes me suspicious about if the skis are actually the skis i want or if they are branded that but are made of some other material or something.
once again sorry for the typing im on mobile atm.
