The most underated ski company.. EVER!

jsnow · 2009-07-15 12:04:17

Surface for sure, no one ever really talks about them. But they make a sick ski the LL2s are f---ing amazing, super chill owners. sick team. over all they should be the talk of the town for the skis that they make.

Your point?

VT_Scratch was talking about MOVEMENT skis, not MOMENT.

HAHA Moment vs. movement....someone was talking to me the other day about picking up a new pair of "movements" and I corrected him and said..."you mean moments..."

but apparantly I was the gaper in that conversation. fml.

i'm going to go with elan, for the simple reason that they were (unsure if it's still true) the world's biggest ski maker, as they pressed skis for a ton of other companies.

They do have horrible marketing and lack a team (unless i don't know about it, which would go to point 1, marketing.)

Nordica is a pretty big ski company, but you never really hear anything about their freestyle shit.

fisher?

Surface is definetly getting bigger and more and more people are talking about them. Its well deserved though the skis are awesome, i love my watch lifes and i eally hope i can get a pair of one lifes/LL2 for next winter.

I think the fact that Blake has a part in a major film this year will help to spread the word even more.

Surface FTW!!

I would hardly consider surface under rated, they get talked up a bunch, especially on this website. I have heard mixed reviews on their skis, however I can not comment personally on their quality.

Faction would get my vote for a company that is very under rated. They make some of the best skis around.

Blizzard makes some of the most awesome skis out there but no one gives them any credit. The 09.10 Answer is one of the best skis I have skied on.

I don't think you can say On3p is underrated... the public hasn't bought any of the skis yet so they have had no opportunity to rate them. That will change soon. Meanwhile the handful of people who HAVE skiied them are basically stoked beyond belief on how awesome the skis are. If 100% of the people who have skiied a ski say it's fucking amazing, how can you say it's underrated? I say they're rated just as highly as they deserve to be.

Yeah you're right. I guess what I meant was they don't have much exposure (obviously since they're new) but that will change when more and more people ride their ON3P's and spread the word. So, in other words, you are right and I am wrong haha.
