As the title states, why isnt Rocky Mountain Underground gaining more popularity?
Dont say the prices of their skis or something is too high when the price of RMU skis and especially the Rippah, is far lower then that of faction which everyone seems to be riding.
ForkMaybe because there is a thread right above this titled DONT BUY RMU
haha yeah I just saw that thread, didnt see it before i posted this though. Interesting, glad i read through that tetongravity forum, seems like theyre a bunch of little bitches
I never believe anything in TGR. Most of those guys are bitches. That being said...... The ski is nothing to write home about. I have skied most of the lineup and can say that there are plenty of other skis that are just as good if not better. The company seems to be more into the summit co vibe and not about the actual ski. Who you have on your team and such has absolutely zero impact on whether or not I buy a ski.

I have a pair of Rippahs as my main park ski and they ride fine but they never make go wow what a great ski. On the other hand their bigger skis fucking suck compared to the competition. Spending a day on north shores was ass compared to pretty much any other skis like it.
I personally feel that they are charging premium prices for a not so premium product. The flex is not progressive and feels like all or nothing, with the core not really moving and the tip and tail bent like crazy. Also feel like they'll last two seconds
snowpocalypseJust too bro for me. Instead of actually giving good info, its more about giving everyone shit that has a different opinion. Egos are just unchecked.
I don't dissagree...mob mentality and circle Jerks is pretty prominent....but it's not like we don't have those there
The problem with RMU is they don't build enough skis that are durable. Also just straight poplar in the rippah is a no go. I can't ski a ski that rebounds like a spring. Need something on the damp side
