Very cool exmaple of a smaller company doing something totally unique with the coiler board. Brilliant! I would love to see more people going down that road.

It would be amazing to see some ski brands starting to do something similar. I am not sure how it would work or even if it would be possible? I guess for the true artists of the sport who hand build and craft their shapes it must be....but at what cost? Still it would have to be worth it as it would be like owning a one off work or art.

Interesting to hear about Andrew at Whitedot. He clearly is a clever and ambitious guy as they are starting to get some good exposure. I will be honest I do not know anything about them really as have not seen any of their products about in Verbier yet. However like with Storm if they put out some cool products then all the better and good luck to them.

Pablo, I certainly did not mean to judge. So please do not think that. Re Vist and Armada. Armada if they offer as personal service as you state still at their size, then all credit to them. They are a great company in my view with top riders still. They have a great image for the youth of our sport and they certainly love to push the limits of design. They are now big enough to do this and to try and change the direction of the sport. Just look at their line of narrow reverse camber twins for next year. Very different. It will be interesting to see how the markets respond.
rip it up!

Hopefully positively. Whitedot are out of the Chamonix valley this year.

I look forward to trying some of their products. As from what I read on exotics reviews they seem to be solid products also.

What an interesting story to watch also with the two companys coming through at the same time. It will be very cool to see how they both do over the next few years.
rip it up!

Gidday guys. I'm Andrew from WDF (the one with the marketing speach Neil :lol:. My mumma is going to pround of that)

Storm are making some great products and I really wish them luck. I spoke to Andy in London last Oct to wish him success and maybe down the track it'd be nice to do something with them.
