Not sure about quality of the skis, but the quality of their character is highly questionable. From what I understand they cheated Vanular out of money they owed him for his pro-model. Personally, I'm taking my money elsewhere

I was thinking about buying them but now they're off the list because of this. If they don't care about the skiiers on their team they probably couldn't care less about their customers

Is the new management going to compensate Vanular? If you take over a brand with a nasty reputation, get ready to inherit that reputation

Back when I jibbed the fuck out of everything I had a pair. This was back like 2003 or some shit. But I loved those skis and they were bomb proff. Especially with me giving them hell.

I'd buy a pair right now if I needed a twin tip

Ninthward could have killed Vanular and I would still buy their skis because I enjoyed them that much.
