[QUOTE="dr-telemark, post: 865910, member: 44806"] The only reason that people are screaming that it's crap is because Tom is claiming stuff that obviously isn't true and has a very weird concept of what freeskiing is all about. For instance, who would want a snowboard or a fat ski that can't be speedchecked by sliding because it has fins attatched that might grab and throw you? Not me. Who would want a ski you can hardly jump because if you land in the backseat you inevitably fall. Well, maybe this guy [URL]http://www.tetongravity.com/videos/Jamie-Pierres-World-Record-Cliff-Jump-620875.htm[/URL] And why would I want to reduce the surface of my powder skis by 1/3? So that I can no longer do this? [URL]http://progma.bilddagboken.se/p/show.html?id=485265397[/URL] I would have been interested in trying these just for fun back in the 80's. But skiing has come a long way since then. Ski ballet disappeared from the international competition scene years ago and I really don't see the Rax ballet/acrobatism potential as a selling point. Rax is probably fun, in the same way that riding a saucer with your kids is fun, or riding snowblades or a snowracer. Or short skis in bumps or the woods in spring. Maybe a future longer Rax can add something to the freeriding scene, but the current videos and pictures tell a different story. It looks laughable. This is not a product that competes with modern freeskiing so why try to convince freeskiers that it is? It just means that in the future, when potential customers google Rax, the negative threads on different forums is what they will read. So a good piece of advice Tom - develop your skis, keep to your niche but stop trying to market these skis as serious freeride products until you actually have a ski that can live up to what you're claiming. Or some photo/video that proves that they already do. Otherwise you're just digging a verbal grave for your brand. [/QUOTE]
