SO I was reading the forums on "skieur" magazine today and saw something about Danyel Bruyant from Axunn buying coreupt... and that they will be returning for next winter with new product. Their site apparently goes live in June.. anyone heard anything about this? I've never ridden a coreupt ski, but still wondering about it.. sorry if this is a repost.. i searched for it and didn't find anything on it.

a ski that skis "dead" or "boring" have nothing to do with how well its made. it has to do with the materials it started out with. you can't blame a factory for assembling a ski from the materials a company chooses.

Nothing wrong with Chinese products. I'd rather buy from a factory of engineers than from a guy in his shed, just saying.

The reason to buy "made in USA" is if you're American and want to support your economy. Nothing wrong with that either.

What are you saying, that Unions push up the prices in the US?

Never. People fighting for working benefits aninimum wages acctually having an effect on the price which companies have to sell at to make a sustainable profit margin?

Well considering I have pretty much no edge left underfoot after one short season (20-25 days) id say the quality was low. And absolutely the quality of a ski can be judged by how it performs.

i think you are misunderstanding me. The quality of the build from the ski from the factory is outstanding while the materials they were told to use (aka, your edges) is not. The factory is not to blame, the ski company that chose the subpar material for the factory to use is.
