Easy question for all you park rats out there. So you open a ski shop and only have enough money for ski 5 companies. What brands do you put in the shop. Only five. No more no less. I wanna see what the top five sought after ski company is. Thanks guys and have fun with this.

how come nobody said Techno Pro?

seriously though about the europe thing, I think Line would be a big one to get.  Alot of european guys I've met said they wanna buy some Line skis here in Canada before they go back home cuz it's hard to find in Europe unless you want to fly to UK

it is also a hell of alot cheaper buying anywhere outside england becasue of the strength of the pound. You can get Line in England, my bro has just got prophet 100's, there doesnt seem to be a massive demand for them at the moment, armada is creaping in.

the vast majority of sales go to the european countries still
