Re: Summit Cone Pariah

Thanks for the clarification. I understand your explanation and it makes sense. At the same time I think it's fair to say that "proportionally" V6s have narrow tails, just from the looks at least... and how they feel when you are finishing a turn. Often- IME- skis that are designed to perform in all...

Re: 3 pin or tts?

I guess this is where the pariah chimes in to highlight the virtues of NNN-BC? Do you think a ski like the Annum is manageable with NNN-BC? Obviously ability, conditions, and boot play a big role in the answer. I would love to know if folks think this is reasonable. I have a pair of Anuums that I h...

I think it would be cool to support the folks behind Telemarkdown. Also, I find it funny that you void the warranty if you don't mount them wi...

Northeast downhill ski for new NTN setup
