Okay, I got a bit of info on the mystery skis. I was in Japan this summer and I found a pair in a shop. They are basically like what you would get if you took a slightly longer than normal snowboard and cut it in half. That is good because it lowers the swing weight. Also, they're a little on the stiff side, but their shortness makes it easier to butter. I'm pretty sure they only come in one size, and they've been the same colour for two years. I don't know who makes them, but it's probably a new Japanese ski brand that no one's heard of.

I'd love to try them, the only bad thing I can think of about them would be the width making it slightly harder to bindsoul.

I'm not 100 percent on this, but pretty darn sure. I think theyre made by a company called ogasaka, which is like this craaazy ski brand in Japan that's so stringent on quality control, that they throw away about 4 pairs for every 1 pair they put on the market - at least when it comes to their racing and carving skis. (they are retarded expensive - like goode's) I think for their freestyle skis though, they're making more weird shit and not being as serious about the quality.

but yeeeah i remember seeing them at SIA and going WTF sweet.. i thought those were just wide chick skis though.. they had some longer ones...
