    Hey There Little Fella....New Rockered Salomon

    New, New. Not like new now, like nnnnnneeeeeeewwwwww.....in the future. Unless I'm mistaken, this has not been discussed, at least not with specifics.

    Salomon Czar 181cm:
    131-111-121
    Twin-tip w/ rocker.

    Saw these on the rack at Meadows today. Ornate gold-crest type graphic on black. Pretty good looking, for Salomon anyway. Was hard to get a feel for the rocker as I restrained myself from touching. Looked like rockered tips and tails. Tail rocker seemed pretty mild. Not flat, but mild, then more rocker in tips.

    No robots. Sorry.

    I'll bet it comes in a 188 too.

    Saw someone on Saturday on skis with the Rocker graphic, but no plastic swallow thing. Rocker in the tip and a little bit in the tail, with a solid twin. I assumed they were just some version of the Rocker, but these are the same ski perhaps?

    Probably.

    Ty-No swallowtail. If you want to imagine it, think of a 181 Thug with rocker in the tip and slight rocker in the tail.

    Have you seen the solly magazine ads with the "Rocker" as they call it in the ad? Its that series they did with the photog describing the shoot in question. Same ski as the ad? I've been wanted to get a look at em.

    Doubt it... Solly rocker only has rocker in the tip and is 121mm or so from the waist.

    Sounds like the 180-ish rockered ski that Abma was talking about at the Seven Sunny Days premiere. Very interesting...Thanks for sharing...
