I'M DOING THIS ENTIRE THREAD IN CAPS LOCKS FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. I WAS TRAWLING THROUGH INSTA STORIES ON MY BREAK AT WORK AND LO AND BEHOLD, THALL POSTED A 'NEW BOOTS ARE LIVE @FULLTILTBOOTS FIRE EMOJI'.

2009 NS WOULD BE FREAKING RIGHT ON OUT.

IM JUST GLAD HE'S STILL GOT A BOOT SPONSOR
HIS OLD DALBELLOS WERE PRETTY DOPE.

Back in the day when Raichle was dying and FT was just a dream from the future, a few of us bump skiers were trying to keep the old 3 piecer around. I"m talking around late ninety's. My favorite Flexon folk tales I used to relay was that Janne Latela, Finnish mogul god and gold medalist, hated his Langes so much he went out the night before a contest and bought a pair of Raichles and won his first WC the next morning. Maybe its true maybe not, but after switching Janne dominated and after that Dale Begg Smith won everything for a few years on Flexons when they weren't even in production.
Malczykof course he is. plus he's an old bump skier and used flexons back in the day. once any pro is relieved of their duties of skiing in their sponsors boots they hate and are forced to wear, they'd always call us up to step into a superior product. bode, bobby, tommy, jimmy, timmy, suzy .. list goes on .. all of em call at some point.

Fun Fact: the flexon/ft orginal mold is the only winter sports product to have at least 1 gold medal in every Olympics since 1984! When i was there i got mildly obsessed with figuring that out. here's a fun info graphic pulled from here

SO, THALL WFT CHAMP IS NOW A SIGNIFICANT PROBABILITY?

InfamouslyJonesI was wondering the same thing. Cant imagine hes pushing FT without a sponsorship.. now the question becomes does he rock the new SC Ascendant or does he get his own pro model. (But who cares.. they stop at a size 30.5)


Just sent out ski boss a pair of our First Chair 130's! https://fulltiltboots.com/en-us/p/first-chair-130

As long as the boots rustle your jimmies, it doesnt really matter who else's jimmies they rustle.

I FEEL LIKE WE ARE GETTING A LITTLE OFF COURSE THOUGH. WE HAVE ESTABLISHED THAT THALL AND FULLTILT ARE NOW IN CAHOOTS- CAN WE EXPECT SOME RIGHTEOUS, 'LYRICAL FIYAAAH' SORTS OF COLLABS IN THE NEAR FUTURE? CALI P X THALL X FULLTILT?

I remember seeing a clip in like 2020 and pausing a video and taking a screenshot and sending to my buddies saying “dalbellos looking like vans??”. Hilarious idea but def so ugly lol
Which is a shame because I usually think DBs look good
