Hi guys,

For the last years we have been working on creating our first ÜNIQUE SKIS series. Well, the prototypes are finished and they turned out great. All that’s missing now is some money to fund the production of the actual series.
That’s why we launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter.

Thanks for checking it out. What do you think?

Honestly don't see any real reason to buy yours vs anyone elses ski right now. Not proven to be durable, fast, etc...no pros to endorse models or even ride them to see true capability. And not to mention pretty expensive. Also not a huge fan of the name.

But to each their own...wish you fellows the best of luck hope it turns out to be a successful venture.

Neat! It truly is a shame you are trying to get into an already over-saturated market. I'm guessing that is why everyone is hating before reading or asking questions.

Is your core solid ash or is it poplar and ash? Why and how did you make that decision (testing multiple types, characteristics, charts, etc)?

You definitely need more pro endorsements of the quality before anybody is gonna buy these.

Best option to determine OP's durability, we get three different ski models from each company then we throw them all in a bonfire only the true winner shall be chosen.
