Paging 4frnt, what can you tell us about this ski?

"GAH Freeride Ski Touring Camps
Submitted by Eric Hjorleifson on Tue, 09/13/2011 - 13:41

Golden Alpine Holiday (GAH) is hosting Freeride Ski Touring camps this December.

Test out my touring freeride set up: two lengths of 4FRNT Renegades and a pair of next years 187 HOJI's, with demo Dynafit Bindings matched up with progressive glue-less Gecko skins!"

maybe just the new EHPs

We can't say much about it other than it's a new model we're releasing next year. It's not the EHP, but it'll take designs from the Renegade and EHP and puts a new take on them.

Hope that's vague enough!

Can you tell us if the flex is more like the EHP or the Renegade? I'm assuming this is the rumoured 112-waisted version of the Renegade.

You know, honestly I haven't even hand flexed a pair yet. The only three people on them to my knowledge have been Eric, Cody and Sterbenz.

At the 4frnt demo day last year that evo put on, matt mentioned that there was a lighter ehp based ski with a touring focus that was going to be the next project since the 196 renegade was ready for sale. No idea about specifics though.

Wish I could go to the camp. Should be a good time. Might have to take a road trip.

I'll be at the camp, will take some spy pics....

Give them a flex for me too...

Whiteroom? Elan?

This is very interesting! Very curious about weight.

Pilsner graphics, Renegade design but with a 30 m radius

Hmm... I like where this is going - definitely going to have to check out / consider the Hoji for my AT setup.

Does this mean there won't be any more EHP's?

I think the EHP were at their best when they were 112 under foot, with the new Hoji and Renegade I don't really see the need for it.

That document is fairly old, and not really reflective of our current plans. Some of it's correct, some isn't, so read into it what you wish

I can't read into it, nothing opens for me. Must be stealth mode

Looks like they took it down due to this thread.

^^TGR strikes again.

4FRNT 2012/2013 HOJI Detail Sheet: The HOJI replaces the EHP in our signature collection. Eric Hjorleifson’s new improved pro-model. The HOJI has similar attributes to the Renegade but its dimensions have been scaled for more all around big mountain skiing.. It incorporates the full rocker camber like the Renegade but has a longer surface length and shorter turn radius.

Sizes:
179cm at 129/112/120
187cm at 130/112/121
195 cm at 133/112/125

Graphics: Pilsner

^^^ the knowledge cannot be contained. (nice work SMS)

heheheh ...

TGR just hacked the mainframe :P
