Figured since you're a donator to the greatest website in the world we should award you with some info leaks, insider news and answer questions you might have about anything Line related (within reason)

We only ask that you do not share with the public and nothing leaves this thread.

So go ahead, ask away! Or share suggestions, opinions, whatever you'd like, good or bad. We'll check back and answer what we can, or tell you we can't. Regardless you'll get something from the horses (err..Ape's) mouth.

thanks,

Apeman

Redhook ESB, easy drinking, not too strong. 2 Beers and Georgetown Brewery right down the street in Georgetown, Seattle do hook us up from time to time with a keg for our bar so any free beer is the best!

not sure, best to ask them on their FB page .. their schedule is all over the place and always changing. The van has some kind of tranny issue at the moment we're trying to figure if you know a guy in the SLC area that can fix turbo diesel engines!

Yes he certainly does. A lot of factors go into getting with a film crew. Best way to get him in is to vent on the TGR forums of how you want to see more of him! When Whiteford makes an edit himself it reaches a ton of people so we're happy with that and don't want to push him in any direction and just let the man ski.

Idk I feel like the reason Line + Andy = goofy tail tucks is because Andy did that, and he would have done that with another ski company if he were to be picked up by someone else as a young'n.

But I could be wrong and you completely right.

this is closer to the reality. our riders are individuals we grow with and align ourselves with. Line does not have a mold that a rider must change to fit into.  or maybe it's the opposite where all are unique & creative in their own way so maybe that's the mold that they fit into? good mold.

I just feel like you guys are the best fit for his style, your company is just so carefree and easygoing, yet wild and unique. Andy's style fits well, and to me almost every other ski sponsor skiing = serious stuff. This way, he can be pro and really fool around. That's what I love about line.

thanks a ton. We aren't sure why anyone takes shooting down an icy slope on 2 sticks that is an outlet for creativity and joy so serious.

I think you guys should give the blend a fat park identity or all mtn. Right now it seems stuck in between with the shape. Maybe make it slightly more symmetrical, idk. Something to sort of replace the lizzie. The new bacons are great, but are way stiffer than I expected and are tougher to mess around on in a smaller/slow speed park setting, something the blend does much better like the lizzie.
I've been riding lizzies or bacons the last 5 years and just wanted to throw my opinion out there.

Ape Man should crack down on the volume that Yoke produces! I suspect they make around 7 painters caps when the public demands more

1. Line has nothing to do with Yoke, other than being homies.
2. I have a feeling Shane and Erik like it that way.

it's a 100% new future ski, created with technology from the even more distant future. LJ's very stoked on them and we worked with him close to produce.
