the new fishers look pretty sick. i know a couple of guys who are riding them and they love em. i think it will be between those the v pros and the scratches next year.

from what i know, i'll ask the rep or check next years buyers catalog, but i think that they are going to continue making it but call it the concept pro as they did this year (except we all still call it the candie)

i saw next years 1080's at the coors light winter classic and they looked sick! hot new graphics resemble those of the pocket rocket and they're wider as well adding more to the all mountain ski feeling. stiffer for sure!

why do people think that just because a ski looks good it will perform well? V-Pros, Scratch, 2002 Salomons are the way to go. Be smart and don't waste your doe...

Man, depends where your at for sure. Do you have huge park or a small one with a few hits. I say the bigger the park the bigger the ski. And if your doing true backcountry boots, then you need a good wide waist. aka pocket Rocket, AK Enemy, scratch

Definitly not the 1260s, they cant ski out of the park. I still have to say the scratchs, I ride them, and I've rode on my friends Vinny Ds and even though my scratchs a a LITTLE heavier, they are a better ski, park and all mountain.

it really comes down to your skiing style, preferences, terrain, and other factors. one ski that perfectly fits someone, might not work for someone else.

just an idea, you all say next years candides but if there is a candide ski next year wouldn't it be part of the 1080 series?
