I've seen a lot of activity on Surfaces instagram and people associated with them. Are they returning in full? Or were they never really gone?


Someone please fill me in

Wow no kidding, they're still posting shots on insta but there's a ton of comments asking for customer service help or if they're even selling skis. Bummer. I liked their gear.

Yeah, I know that there website was up and still selling skis, even after they had supposedly closed. It would send you to the joystick causwell European site which is kinda sketch. I was able to contact them last year in the fall and the said they still had a few pairs left. I'm just trying to figure out what really happened. I'd really like a pair of outsiders.

Their skis were weird. Some lasted a day, others lasted years. Super hit and miss.

my surface blanks disintegrated in less than half a season, yet my surface One Lifes from spring of 2013 are going into what is now 5.5 hard seasons of both park and pow ripping on them and they are fine. I've filled in at least a dozen core shots from hitting rocks but theres still not a single edge crack from a significant amount of park riding. I don't ski them everyday since I have narrower park skis but I still find that damn impressive. I've had a brand new pair of '14 One Lifes in shrinkwrap waiting to be mounted for the past 3 years but my current ones just wont quit
