Gotama 197 blir inte av
Som ni ser, mkt tråkigt. Im just the messenger.
"It is with profound regret that I have to announce that the 197 Gotama was cancelled. We honestly planned to build it. It was prototyped, tested, and included in the dealer catalogs...but the dealers simply did not respond. They overwhelmingly thought that it was too long to be sellable. Though they bought the 190 in serious numbers, they wouldn't bite on another 7 centimeters.
We booked more 190 Sumos than 197 Gotamas, go figure that.
My apologies to anyone that was looking forward to this ski. We were too.
The Gotama is indeed made in China, but there are a small handful of German-born first run skis that made it out there. Chinese skis are very easy to identify by a white "Made in China" sticker on the base near the tail."
