Kbob94I really hope so. Haven’t heard anything yet tho. I will say I heard the k2 reckoner line is getting completely remade with all new shapes and widths. I’ll definitely share more details once I know more
Kbob94It’s definitely crazy but necessary, the time cycle and process that goes into building a new ski or boot etc is such a damn long time that in order to design, prototype, tweak protos it has to be a year or two out. @tomPietrowski im certain could definitely give us more insight into that. Granted too besides us on NS the general public would have no damn clue that athletes are riding on not current year stuff

hi_vis360Who has info on the Salomon sidehit? I think sleepy has been riding it for a while now, seems like that ski has been in development forever but I’m pretty sure it’s supposed to drop in fall 24
LemuelI have an absolute mint pair up for grabs. Sad to see the best binding leave the market if it’s true.
sindreplassenidk about used skis though

TwigThey've changed it a good bit from the ski you've seen Sleepy skiing mostly. There are like 5 pairs out there right now and full production hasn't started yet, as last I heard. That said, it is coming and it is a really good looking ski. I don't want to tread on any toes and drop info that isn't out, but for me, it could be the ski to buy in that 100-110mm range for as much versatility as possible. I have mixed feelings re. Salomon in general, but the ski is a banger. I think there will be some news on them in the next few months...
-eREKTion-Damn, I’ll pour one out for the STH2. Used to buy them because Solly had the best pro-form but they got me hooked. Best binding, PERIOD. Have fun with your core-af pivot/fks in deep snow, nerd.
onenerdykidUsed skis should be alright, to an extent. It's relatively easy to judge the wear & tear on a ski and figure out what it is worth to you.
I would be hesitant of buying used ski boots though, mainly due to any customization that has been done to them. No point in buying a boot that has someone else's foot shape ground/stretched/molded into it.
And it's easier to keep a pair of boots going longer than skis. There are at least repairable/replaceable parts on a boot, not so much with skis. Provided that your shell & cuff are ok, it is possible to get new soles, new power straps, new liners, new buckles, etc. in order to extend the life of your boot.
Absolutely no one should be buying used safety equipment, like a helmet. Helmets are safety rated for a single impact and even with seemingly good looking helmets, there is often no way of telling if the helmet's safety has been compromised.
hi_vis360I was kinda hoping they would be in the 90-100 mm range but a ski similar to the rocker2 100s would be equally hype that ski was sick

WunhungL0bring back the Tdubz Timbz
tomPietrowskiYeah the design process is certainly long. It’s different for skis and boots for sure due to the differences in production. For example our ski development team are in the middle of f25 (fall 2025 release) whereas we are starting our F26 boot development program.
In terms of athletes on products it does depend on who they are and what we want testing most though will be on current season product until the new year and then they will switch to f24 product
we will have some long term testing going on though but you would have to look closely to spot anything.
bustedpivotLook at it closely fool...i don't live to live.

b_in_subtleI could be wrong but I think they still have the 16 but the 13 is done. 16 will probably be done in the next couple years, but it’s still in the 23/24 product line for now.
BigPurpleSkiSuitI have 2 pairs in my quiver but might buy more if I find out that's true
Farmville420Time to stock up I guess
