I can’t find it in my photos, but does anyone remember when these first came up on an ig story? I swear I remember them being edgeless underfoot, maybe it came up in a ns thread. Anyone hear anything? I know this is just a topsheet on mags but I thought on3p might have an edgeless underfoot offering this season :)

Trying not to speak out of school. But I'm sure the labor cost for an edgeless under foot ski goes up quit a bit.

I think Meeks is dope, and on3p graphics are usually good.

but am I the only one that thinks the beer can graphic looks bad?

The concept is good, it just could’ve been executed better, kind of looks like someone took a single photoshop / illustrator class, made a simple graphic and threw on some cheap looking gradients.

I mean for goodness sake, they’re using like 4 or 5 different typefaces.

Idk, I just couldn’t justify spending that high of a price on park skis and getting a graphic that doesn’t look premium at all.

It was on Meek’s story around last summer/spring when his acl was still torn (second time around, still feel horrible that happened to him). I remember he put it on his story with some dinosaur emojis (🦖)

Guess we should probably let Modelo know that using 4 different typefaces is a no go :D

Team guys are often getting skis with various prototype designs - and non-conventional park skis have been being tested for years. If we have something we feel is ready to bring to market and that will actually add notable durability or performance improvements, we will. None of it will be cheap - as they all add pretty considerable labor costs.

That said, each option has its own quirks, costs, and issues and when it comes to these park designs, the only way to really test them is to just beat on them forever, so slow going. I'd love to say that a hybrid edgeless design solves all the issues caused by hitting rails, but it really just has a different set of long term issues.

They aren’t putting out the underfoot edge less, so yes they’re the same as the mags
