The Supreme FR actually looks pretty interesting as a pow touring ski, but if their stated weights are even close to accurate, seems like they're all ridiculously light (1260 g for a 176 cm park ski?). Also, someone needs to tell them to list what length the weights refer to.

Pretty ironic, seeing as their bikes are all quite hefty. But yeah, they're no longer doing the rebranded Faction route, and are apparently planning on continuing to expand and really put money into the ski line. Might be getting on some this season.

Damn for anyone looking to get into touring these might actually be a good way to get a cheaper setup. 370 dollars isn't bad, hopefully they don't ski poorly.
