Not boring skis

jfp

new salomon QST Blank are 🔥

BaltoYo I leave for a decade and everything gets really boring from the look of it. Did people stop watching idea on repeat?

Where's the fun skis? Og ep pro fun.

Why is surface making a symmetrical 130+ wide ski and everyone else is 'serious touring performance now', screw that I'm getting drunk and skiing trees at the resort I'm too old to walk my ass up the hill. (BTW I hate surface skis at least a decade ago)

Hl Hb122 seems fun. Maybe get those?

Soft on3p? Seems obvious and in turn boring for me these days.

Do people even remember the moment melee?

FruitBootProTry Armada Whitewalker 121

FaunaSkisDeep taper, deep rocker, park tail, long turn radius, balanced swing weight, unique topsheet, not boring enough?

Check out our Pioneer

K-Dot.Those 130 surfaces are actually wildly fun and in a very similar ball park as old ep pros, similar softness and ability to pivot and spin on a dime, great for landing switch in pow. The surface you’ve continued to hate for a decade doesn’t even exist anymore lmao, they’ve long since had a new owner, factory and team

BaltoHey see this is what I'm talking about, this is kind of stupid in a fun way and is exactly what I'm after for fun designs.

BallClapperoh, moment og too. Don't know much about it but product description has me hyped up. No camber, hella rocker, centered mount, midfat, soft. Apparently it's an old design they bringing back for a limited release. You might know it. https://www.momentskis.com/collections/24-25/products/the-og-186

BaltoGuys let's clarify, fun does not just mean soft, fun means fun. Sparking joy like the Asian lady. There are plenty of fun stiff skis. The og ep was very fun, regardless of the flex, for the time it was released.

Other fun skis:
Line Elizabeth
Moment comi
Armada ar5/thall
K2 pontoon
On3p billygoat
Atomic triplet
Dps lots 138
Liberty bfg
Head JO pro

Baltosame as the candide skis.

cyphersyou missed out on the pinnacle of silly skis. k2 stopped building marksmans a few seasons ago

CatdickBojanglesSaw you mention the old Lizzie’s. Check out the J Skis Vacation. Pretty sure he built it off the old Lizzie’s. Or check out the Line Bacons. I can vouch for how much fun the bacons are.

BaltoJ skis are terrible lol

CatdickBojanglesTheir marketing is terrible and cringe. Their skis on the other hand are pretty damn solid.

jfpSeems like you're basing your likes on graphics.
As far as shapes and design qualities skis have only improved over the years.

SofaKingSickOP it sounds like you need some snowblades. maybe regular bindings though cause ripping your leg off in a bear trap binding is def not fun and whimsical

SweetishFishIt’s gonna be hard to find some interesting skis if you hate most of the brands that make them

BloodyBananaYou were off to the right start with the HL HB112 for sure. You pick any ski on HLs website and order it, promise it won’t be boring. Extremely durable construction and dialed shapes/profiles.

snowfinderHarvested some slush on my HB122 yesterday, it was a blast.

BaltoTalking to Marshal about them, can you confirm what country they are made in? He sent me this like multi paragraph answer about it but didnt actually answer the question.

Rn seem like im gonna get hb122 and a secret on3p

snowfinderNot sure if it is my place to share that info, I will say this, he uses a factory that many other companies use. Build quality is top-notch.

BaltoEveryone tiptoeing around that question basically just tells me they are made in china, I'm familiar with the major factories and don't really see any reason to hide country of origin unless there's fear it will cause backlash which you'd only get with an asian factory realistically.
