Baller MattP Posted August 28, 2011 Baller Share Posted August 28, 2011 My Sources in England tell me that Chris Parish is ridding an A2 at the Princes Pro-Am. I am waiting on picture confirmation. Could a new World Record be set on an A2? Or is CP going for constancy? Could this ski change break Goode's claim that they hold all the records?

swerveit Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Having been there I can tell you that he was on an A2.reckons the ski is way more forgiving in chop/rollers.having watched CP the whole weekend he looked super hungry and on form to win it, just got unlucky in the head to head.

Baller Chuck_Dickey Posted August 29, 2011 Baller Share Posted August 29, 2011 Photoshop all the way. Water off the ski is not right and the clarity of the ski is better than the rest of the photograph. Looks like CP early last year or 2009 based on the ski vest he is wearing.

Baller MrJones Posted August 30, 2011 Baller Share Posted August 30, 2011 Like most of us, I think he is looking for that ski that will give him the advantage to win. He has been able to put up amazing scores in record tournaments since going to the Goode, t has just not carried over to consistent pro tour wins. With young guys like Nate and JT on the rise along with T Gas, Larkin, and Willy (who has been off as well) I imagine he is feeling the pressure.

Baller ForrestGump Posted September 1, 2011 Baller Share Posted September 1, 2011 I wouldn't necessarily read anything to it just yet. While it's abnormal to see a sponsored skier on a different ski, it's not abnormal for sponsored skiers to ride other skis. You just rarely see anything about it. We'll know for sure at Diablo in two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
