The skis are out now ;) Most fun and playful skis I’ve ever ridden👌💯
I really wanted to buy them, I am based in France and there are dealers in Spain. But this jump from 599€ to 799€ leaves me doubtful. I find it hard to invest so much in a ski that I'm going to slaughter on rails. And on the other hand, from Augment's point of view, I understand that you need to generate enough margin to take the brand to another scale, and I imagine that using race ski technologies on a freestyle ski makes it come out at a higher factory price (it' s produced in Austria, for the record).
I just saw that Redbull Van Deer is acquiring Augment Sport.

They stopped to make the park ski because with the way they wanted to make the ski it would be to expensive and they would be not competitive with the other skis that are like 400€.
steez_apprenticewhy did they stop making park skis? I liked the idea behind them a lot

dang :( idea seemed super dope back when speldo was skiing them
I talked to them in january and they said that they wanted to make them better and more durable but they couldn't make them for the price they wanted to.
