So Pumped on 4frnt right now

So today I got my 2010 4frnt MSP's! They sent me the 2010's after they had sent me a messed up ski and I sent it back on warranty. I was really happy about this and it only added to the fact that back in November, Matt Strebenz himself came out to the shop I work at in Jersey to rep his company. For those of you who don't work in a shop, every year each company sends a rep to your shop to talk about new products and technology so we can sell them. Now usually its just a regular, regional rep, but one night I was working and Matt Sterbenz walked in. How often do you hear about the owner of a company or a pro skier going out to talk about their product at shops?? it just doesn't happen. So now I've met the man behind an awesome company and I have a pair of next years skis in my possession. So for all of you who hate on 4frnt, maybe this will change your mind...maybe

Hopefully your edges won't peal like a banana. 

You are lucky they warrantied them.  I wonder if they roll the dice every time someone calls in.

Those bases are SO hot. I wonder if they'll last though.

Love the MSPs too. So fun for everything.

I still don't know if I would ever get 4frnt skis.  I've got nothing against them, but they don't do anything for me either.  I'm stoked to mount my Deadbolt 18's on my LL2's though.
