Back from the Dead

**MUGATU** · 03-01-2008, 03:09 PM

I had to go to my alias on this one.

I heard a certain pro talking about doing a deal with Rossi for a pro model binding. A certain binding that was discontinued recently. This pro is not currently with Rossi in any way now, but has been using their binders all his career.

That's all I can give you, but you guys are smart enough to figure it out.

i don't know about his whole career, but i've a noticed a certain armada rider, whos been rocking rossi bindings for some time, and he has never been affiliated with rossi before. he's the only one that comes to mind...for now anyway

Ramers back from the dead?

FKNA!

P18 Junkies of the World Unite!!!!

Still got two brand NIB ready for future defloration.

You definitely got to stock on stuff like P18s, Legend Pros and all the awesome stuff produced by companies recently acquired from buyout artists that run businesses by numbers and can't care about solid stuff so start to modify/soften/make in china to appeal to a larger market.

It's US againt THEM. Smart up!

I heard a guy say that another guy knows a guy who said that...

**Tony** · 03-01-2008, 08:47 PM

Which guy? The guy that another guy said that he knows a guy or the guy that knows a guy who heard another guy said it?

SWEET!!! I've been looking at my skis trying to decide who gets skied the least so I can remove the pivots and use them on a new ski. Now I don't have too! I hope it is more than just a rumor.

okbye

I'll buy that for a dollar.

I bought an extra pair because I new they were going to be discontinued.

good call. completely forgot about him, and that fact that he signed with someone else this year. but he did ski for salomon early on, so that might negate the "his whole career" thing. nevertheless, whoever's pro model this binding is, it will be welcomed back with really wide open arms.

Kinda hijacking, but what are the main differences between a Look Z-RS and a p18 if any?

I have some Z-RS that have just been chilling in my closet for a couple years.

**gwat** · 03-02-2008, 05:12 PM

only difference is the shape of the toepiece. same mechanics and everything.

**slim** · 03-02-2008, 07:19 PM

BROKE!!! MY ANKLES ARE BROKE!!! MY P18s BROKE MY ANKLES!!! AAAAHHHHHHH!!!

**njfreeskier** · 03-02-2008, 07:38 PM

well if it is a certain cocky staple in the jibbing world who broke his ankles doing a fakie 900 and was the second skier to make it onto mtv (go johnny mosley) and is now venturing out into the backcountry with his arg's than that means brake options or a really wide brake will be available/stock, cuz them be some wideass skis. new p18/fks 185 back in production, with a wide brake...what could be better?
