They look really nice. Not much of a fan of color brown which should only be used for leather jackets, shoes/boots and belts and completely banned on everything else, but these are nice.

Quick, someone paint all the Rodin and Phidias bronzes, Tony's coming...

Oh how we debase ourselves discussing graphics

Bronze is fine. I didn't say anything about bronze. It is the stuff like this I am against:

^Perfect demonstration of how dark orange turns brown.

If we click on the image, the screen background goes black and that coat is clearly orange.

Dunno, take that to Google according to which this is Brown Ski Jacket.

Well, at least the YouTube part of Google agrees with me

Liking the addition of some color to Rossi's Experience line.

I'm still enjoying my 86tis, but the black is meh.

Dear Rossi: Please add an Experience 100 ti. Just bandsaw down the centerline of my 86s and stretch them out 14-16 mm. Thanks in advance.

Sorry, bandsaw is busy making the Black Ops 110s.

The AS absolutely arent.
The AW replaces Nela 80…sort of.

You are right, I was put off by the color, but after looking at the specs, it is not a women's ski but a new offering. looks nice.

I agree - colors like this should be banned on the slopes…

I am curious, was Peak at the show?

As a DTC, there was no reason to, it was a show for retailers.

 

[James]

How are the retailers reacting to Boa, or is that hard to tell?

Some are skeptical but they are also skeptical with anything new ie Protector bindings last season, Gripwalk, anything new.

 

[Erik Timmerman]

I'd totally buy those Rothman's Heads - if I could afford a 911 Dakar to put them on.

 

[Jeronimo]

Any word on new Roxa upgrades?

 

[Phatboy64]

Maybe I missed this but any change to the Volkl Racetiger SL rMotion ofr 2024?

After seeing Ski Essential's review of the Rossi Forzas, I am pretty interested.....
