[Greco]

couple of years ago i saw a pair of really nice 4 hole scratch skiboards in a japanese mag. i'm pretty sure they were only sold in japan.

[tommy]

apparently these are coming out next season!

[LikWid]

What are scratch boards?

[tommy]

theyre ski company.

[phillycore]

but it says rossignol on it.....

I'm more confused now

[Greco]

Scratch is a model of rossignol skis, it's a full size twintip model and a good one at that.

[phillycore]

ahhhh....ok

now I get it

[Branden]

I rode the rossy scratches at okemo this year at a demo. They aint bad. kinda stiff for my taste. Even if the Skiboards are out in Japan. In the US there is a law stating that any ski 100 cm or above requires a releasable binding.

progression?

all i see is a skiboard/ski hybrid.

degression.

[tommy]

yeh but alot of people follow fashion if skiboards suddenly became cool then alot more people would try skiboarding i know you shouldnt do a sport cus its cool but thats how most sports get big right? and scratch skiboards seems to be something "cool"

[Roussel]

why do we need our sport to become mainstream? so we can all ride down the hill with paul mitchell or disney written on our backs?

[Jonny W]

those rossis look alot like the salomons. maybe they won't break as easily as all the other skiboards out

[Roussel]

they do have a centered stance and look symetrical.

but the shape looks bad.
