Since tanners talked about it on his IG live. There’s a new Magic J UL coming as well! Don’t know if it’s gonna be a mid season release or just a full release next fall. I know the ski has edgeless tip and tails. I’m gonna see it in person soon so I’ll give full report back on it once I get my hands on it.

Are these skis tiny? Like 140something? Very forward mount point? Optical illusion/camera angle?

Would really be stoked if they're reminiscent of the old peacemakers/gunsmokes. Rustlers are pretty fun and all but really don't compare.

Of everything they could do, why this? They should really just add a custom builder with a handful of color options and more tame prints (camo, splatter, etc.)

Someone from the brand actually wanted to meet with us at the shop this winter to discuss our thoughts on freeskiing regarding salomon. They ended up not coming but it seems they might actually care about it again and this new ski looks pretty cool. Would love to see them give a shit about skiing in general again and not just trail running.

For the people deep in to the free skiing right now Salomon hasn't been there for them, they haven't done a thing since like 2013. To get back in the game they would have to do a huge marketing push and have some exciting products.
