Any Early Reports on V-Type

[JAS]

Who has been on one?

[Stevie Boy]

I was at the over 35 worlds and they were doing free demos, the people I spoke to, who had a demo on it, did not seem to be over excited about it, but one set, on a different/new ski, is not really going to give you a fair go, a couple of people said they equaled what they were doing on there current ski.

There are just not many out there. I say it is a wise that HO is waiting to dot all "I"s and cross all "T"s before the skis get to the public.

[Stevie Boy]

@Horton, so is it possible, that the current "V Type" may not be the finished product, that ends up as a retail item, available to the public ?

[wtrskior]

@Stevie Boy V-type is already in stores, available for sale. Saw one yesterday! Looks really sharp

[Horton]

@Stevie Boy‌ anything is possible but I don't think so. Asher looks really good on his and production skis are out there. Heck @wtrskior‌ saw one.

I know 66"s have been on shelves for a little bit and 67"s were sett to start coming out of the moulds and shipping this past week.

It's a shame the video of Will Asher, that was on the homepage, did not show the previous pass, it would have been nice to see video of the ski, through the whole course, instead of a couple of bouy,s.

I do agree with Horton, it did look impressive, but there again Will Asher was riding it.

Brian Detrick looked good on his S2 over the weekend...just sayn...

[Horton]

@‌wish

that is not an S2. V Type prototype

[Wish]

I asked him directly, ski in hand, this past Sat if it was an S2... Yes was the answer and the steps were on the bottom of the ski and graphics were S2. He also looked at mine and commented on how many design elements of the S2 were incoprerted into the V-Type. I think he woulda just showed me his vs telling me. If I misunderstood him I musta had a couple gallons of water still in my ears from my set. Sooooo...back to ....

just sayn ;-)

[wtrskior]

@Rpc29‌ lol. How can you disagree with my post? They are for sale right now in stores. Saw one on Saturday with me own eyes....

No point in arguing with you. Go out and buy a ski exactly like what BD is one. I will pay for it.

[Rpc29]

@wtrskior‌ Oops. Didn't mean to do that.

I set the fin on a 66" V Type 10 days ago and I live in Greece!

The guy went out on the second round of a tournament (first time on the ski) and came back with a big smile.

I think he matched his tournament PB!

[Horton]

Wow

[skialex]

I just wanted to point out that V Type has already reached the edge of ski world and not only one, there was one more available to demo. As far as the story above it is true, the guy is under 17, skis into deap -35@36 comes from an A3 and skis better and better all the time.

[Horton]

I heard a report from a open rated skier who shall not be named .... that he ran over 4 ball at 41 off is first set on the V-Type. That is saying something.
