4Frnt MSP

The MSP 4front Skis feature a turn radius of 25m, so that means when you get going faster, these boards really keep their cool and man is it stable! The extra width underfoot compliments the performance in all conditions; wide enough for the new snow and narrow enough to link the quick turns on the hard pack. The dimensions proportionally reduce in width as the length changes to accommodate lighter riders; this ski is a true performer for everyone out there.

4Frnt TNK

The TNK 4frnt Skis are made to support you in both park and pipe. The main goal was to make the TNK a bit stiffer like the MSP but with a quicker turn radius like the STL. This ski feels really light under foot but also very stable. The LITEblock core design saves on weight but provides a consistent flex throughout. The result of this combination gives the quickness for smooth carving off the jumps and just enough stiffness, stability and pop for boosting big in the pipe. The sidecut is practically centered with tip and tail dimensions only a few millimeters different so you can always have your skis mounted true center.

Salomon 1080 gun skis-

Salomon had to replace the Pocket Rocket with something better so in 2005/2006 Salomon created the Gun S Lab for their Freeride Team. The Gun S Lab of last year is now the new 1080 Gun. Totally redesigned from the Pocket Rocket and the 1080 Gun, the new 2007 Salomon Gun skis are not only wider, but they are more versatile as well.

"I went to Alaska scared as hell to go heli-skiing for the first time not knowing what I was getting into and how my new skis ('07 Salomon 1080 Gun) would ski. It was all a piece of cake! The skis were perfect for every kind of snow that I came in contact with."

2007 Rossignol Scratch FS WrS
 
Description of Rossignol Scratch FS WRS Alpine Ski:

Take the Rossignol Scratch FS WRS Alpine Ski for a spin in the park and see why the Rossignol freestyle team dubbed it their park and pipe pro model. With the help of freestyle legend Candide Thovex, the folks at Rossignol honed this ski into a park-devouring beast. Rossignol's Weight Reduction System (WRS) uses parabolic fiber placement throughout the ski's core for greater fiber density underfoot and a forgiving feel in the tip and tail. This lightweight construction leaves the Scratch FC Skis 400 grams lighter than last year's model, which makes for easy spins. The softer tip and tail make for buttery-smooth ladings, and monster pop.

Bottom Line: Go bigger and badder in the park on the Rossignol Scratch FS WRS ski.

DIMENSIONS:
[181cm] 116/84/109mm

TURN RADIUS:
21m

07 Rossignol Scratch BC WrS
 
Description of Rossignol Scratch BC WRS Alpine Ski:

Take your freestyle illness to the backcountry on the Rossignol Scratch BC WRS Alpine Ski. The Scratch BC airs backcountry booters with ease and takes big powder lines like an eighties glam rocker. Rossignol's Weight Reduction System (WRS) uses parabolic fiber placement throughout the core for greater fiber density underfoot and a more forgiving feel in the tip and tail. This lightweight construction leaves the Scratch BC Ski 600 grams lighter than last year's model, and makes for easy spins and buttery-smooth ladings. The fatty shape (128/98/121 millimeters) floats out landings and high speed descents like a dream.

Bottom Line: Warning: the Rossignol Scratch BC WRS alpine ski may cause backcountry addiction and possible euphoria.

2007 K2 Fugatives
 
Skis "Wanted dead or alive" sums up the Fujative in one sentence. Known on police reports as Braden "Pep" Fujas, this K2 pro model is smooth and sophisticated yet elusive and hard to figure out. Excatly where will he take the sport and open up new possibilities for what can be done on skis. Having nothing to hide, the K2 Fujative Twin Tip Skis bares it all, showing a solid wood core from front to back. When looking for a binding for a twin tip ski look for non lifted bindings. This not only will allow for a lighter overall weight, but also better feel when doing rails and grabs. We also have our twin tips matched up with bindings in the ski package section.

Features: - Sidecut: 12mm - Constuction: Triaxially braided wood
- Torsion Box
- Vertical cap
- Double binding mat
- Twin tip
- Core center mounting chart
- Thick edges
- Disregard for flex profile laws
- Park/pipe/jib specific twin
- Single Rivit Tip and Tail
- Sizes: 159, 169, 179

K2 Public Enemys
 
I am a happy owner of the 06 Public Enemys, so I imagine the 07's are sick nasty as well.
 
Public Enemy- 2007 Model Year

Developed by the band of misfits called the K2 team, the Public Enemy features new ABS sidewalls and 2.5mm wider steel edge for added durability for that midtown subway handrail you’ve been dying to slide. Cool .45 Automatic shell casing tip and tail rivets make the extremities bullet proof and urban graffiti p-tex die-cut top are truly unique. Believe the hype.

each model, and in-your-face
British anthem base scream Anarchy. Pick up the instrument, take the
stage, and make Seth and the ski
Bloody Proud!

K2 Factory Team influenced the entire design including the hand drawn graphics for the new 04-05 park/jib ski, the Fugitive. This ski maintains the all mountain performance of the Enemy but the redesigned tip and tail shape, tip and tail height, tip and tail rivets, ABS sidewall construction, thicker edges, and new shape are focused specifically on the park, pipe, and jib applications.

2004-2005 Models are here!
This is one ski that can speak for itself. If you are seriously looking at twin-tips, then you already know about the 1080. We're not gonna mention that it's been the best selling twin-tip ski for the last 4years. We're really not gonna mention that it was really the first twin-tip ski made available to the public. And there is no way that we're gonna mention that this ski has been ridden by more pro riders than any other ski in history.

Salomon made the 1080 to have more flex in the front of the ski for cleaner push-offs, and a dynamic powerful tail for smooth landings. It features Single wall Monocoque Lite construction for a true self carrying structure for effortless edge grip. The 1080 also has a Dynamic Extended Power platform which transmits your skiing effort with the maximum liveliness.

Details:
-Monocoque Lite Composite Wall
-Dynamic Extended Power Platform
-Power foam PU
-Stucture SRB-W
-Designed Transparent UHMW
-Twintip
-Metaflex
