The New Ski Spy Shot Thread - 07/08 edition

**MrDirt** · 01-06-2007, 10:16 PM

Post your pictures of new skis here, or discuss what others have posted. That is all.

The new 189 B-Squad. Sorry I didn't put them on the correct sides. I was in a hurry and didn't pay attention to the graphics.

A symmetrical ski made by Unity Skis. 150-140-150

The 181 K2 Coomba

**pechelman** · 01-06-2007, 10:18 PM

i think those squads look hot.
where are the coombas....edit:nevermind, see you added them
and wtf are the hell are those unitys. sounds\looks pretty weird. where is the suggested mount line, out of curiousity

**leroy jenkins** · 01-06-2007, 10:22 PM

So are the unities symetrical in camber/flex too? seems like a decent idea for parkrat/booter monkies that have like ten different pairs of skis, enough to have one specifially for landing switch.

**MrDirt** · 01-06-2007, 10:27 PM

Once again, SuperGaper will probably chime in and provide more information than I'm able to. He told me the Unity ski was meant to be mounted 4cm from true center. I really don't know a whole lot about any of these skis other than that they are new and they are all hot shit!

**pechelman** · 01-06-2007, 10:28 PM

so have you or he had a chance yet to ski the coomba?
i assume you'll start a new thread or something talking about them when you do.

**BushwackerinPA** · 01-06-2007, 10:30 PM

I wonder whose skis those squads are hmmmn I have no clue. Who in jackson hole would have next years squads already I just cant figure it out.

**marshalolson** · 01-06-2007, 10:38 PM

Basically, it rings a bell, but I have no useful information whatsoever.

Those bsquads look sick. Can't wait to see a picture of Hell-Bents...

Agreed, they sound really sick. Hopefully they go with Seth Vicious/AK Enemy construction instead of the cap/Apache garbage. A flex like the 189 SV/AK Enemy(whichever is stiffer) or maybe a touch stiffer than that would pretty much ensure that I buy a pair.

**burny** · 01-07-2007, 03:19 PM

this pic went around in a german forum ... infos about it are: it has 118 around the waist and negative camber. I dont have more infos ... k2 kicked out all race skis but two models, focus on freeride/freestyle.

**marshalolson** · 01-07-2007, 03:22 PM

122mm confirmed. and i wonder who that is that's pictured...

**burny** · 01-07-2007, 03:24 PM

k2, oakley, hestra, salomon bindings ... well ... i only know one guy who uses this setup ;-)

edit: and as far as I know, he is about 1,75 tall.

Couldn't have said it better myself and the above teaser picture looks promising.

i dunno, apparently the pro's and xxl's are unchanged this year other than the topsheets, but there may be a shorter and stiffer xxl with the same sidecut added to the line.

**Mikey** · 01-08-2007, 01:07 PM

Skied with Pete (the owner of Unity) yesterday in Vail and then checked out the factory whilst in Silverthorn on my way home. He's got a full range of skis coming out. Construction looks absolutely bomber; all maple core, traditional sidewall construction. Pretty light as no metal. The factory mount point on the Hiatt 190 is back from where Trevor mounts his . They have a very slight amount of camber.

I've got a set of these on order so will post more pics when they come in.

Looking very forward to hearing more about these. When are you slated to receive them??

**Mikey** · 01-08-2007, 03:18 PM

Pete is just making up some more for SIA - should pick mine up next Saturday. Hopefully then Marshal can mount them for me - at the same time he does my 138's...

I have no means of justifying this quiver crossover, other than i'm spending far too much time in the office and it makes me feel better to make multiple ski purchases.
