FA Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I will be in Seattle for the first time to visit my brother in-law on June 6-12. I was wondering if any of the ski manufactures, ie Connolly, Obrien, Ho or Radar allow visits to the factory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller jipster43 Posted May 3, 2011 Baller Share Posted May 3, 2011 You'll probably need Richard's help finding Wiley's. Bin Laden would have been safer hiding there. It is well worth the effort though. Every ski of every era can be found there. Super rad. JP :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLOskier Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Don't surprise the HO factory by showing up there with an eRV full of collegiate skiers on the way to Washington; they don't manufacture skis there anymore, so there's not much to check out. HO's skis are now all produced at the Connelly factory, however, which is also in the area (haven't been there myself). The only other place I've seen in person is the O'Brien factory a few years ago, but they hooked up a full tour of their manufacturing facility. That, too, is in the Seattle(ish) area.

454SS Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 I saw jamie on tv once going through the process of making a new connelly. I can't remember what the show was called but it was pretty awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
