Both of these are wrong. Surface is on the brink of death, and thats Banks Gilberti. Bobby Brown has been ripping on Salomon still as of yesterday

I was going to say, salomon wouldn't be too happy with him.

Does anyone have legit proof on surface being near dead?

"Wearing the local brands skis"

Not even correct, but man that's some weird wording.

they didn't produce any new skis for 16/17 winter, only sold last seasons skis/accessories for a discount at the normal online store @ http://shop.freeskibrands.com which now doesn't exist

Heard Surface was "restructuring" over this season, at least that was a few months ago. Been pretty quiet over there.

that's why I said "which now doesn't exist"

shop.freeskibrands.com used to be surface joystick and causwells online retail presence, so it's kinda concerning that the website is gone now
