Khyber, are those tails on the Pures a little less rounded than the Hybrids?
Kind of looks that way in your pics.

Dimensions are the same between Hybrids & Pures, and according to my eyes, the tails are the same.

Wonky pics thanks to use of "carboner" in this thread.

Barring the china thing I just have a comment on the DPS and Pm gear since have both. Both are similarly priced for hybrid/carbon combo and Lhasa pow. Both of which I have. So comparison will be pretty fair. Some people will pay premium for US made. Retail on Lhasa is $950 and retail on DPS is 1200/800. Both charge for shipping. Seems like a great comparison in quality and ski review. Different specs yes. And when I get back from china maybe I'll comment on that but it's a separate issue. Dps china is $800/1200 and pm gear is $950 Renegade is $880. All are retail and have discounts for blemish, presale and leftovers or sales.
I'm a believer in you get what you pay for and the consumer is ultimate decider. If you dont like a product don't buy it or demand a better price. I've been to Russia and I would buy their tech stuff cause I know it works. Some people still live in the cold war that's cool. The world is more global than we think. Communist, socialist, democratic are all just titles. Most people, the average person loke he ones I met in Russia and I imagine the ones I'll meet in china, are no different than the average US family. They just want a little house, 2.3 kids and a Volvo. so let the gear decide. I will provide my review of all 3 (RP112, Lhasa and Renegade). Should be good compare of three custom boards. Already know Lhasa rips. We do not make the world, we make it smaller TM. If there was snow there would not be this much discuss, but it has begun.
