Rocky Mountain Underground is massively dissapointing.

that is a lulz typo on their website

Defective materials and workmanship are expressly not warrantied, per their website, so this whole thread makes sense now

I still have a problem with no warranty if the skis are on sale. Or not registered.

I thought recinding warranty on either of those grounds was illegal.

buuump for Shredgnar

Quality control might explain why your bindings won’t stay on your rmu skis

^^ Ha. Was waiting for this. He has already purchased some ON3P’s so his problems should be over.

Haha,
for the record, they were good skis for a good 3 seasons. Water got into the core. I don't blame the gear. It's the indian not the arrow.

Pre season bump

**Soups** · 09-12-2018, 04:39 PM

Ah man. I was just gonna buy some for a great price in gear swap

**bigdude2468** · 09-12-2018, 06:36 PM

Curious, does RMU make their own skis or do they subcontract manufacturing?

They have bounced around between a few factories. I believe Utopie in Quebec was one of them, and I think they may be moving into the Elan factory, but I forget my source on that one.

Based on the two sheets of RMU graphics that were used for packing material in a pair of skis I purchased from a different ski company I would say they are being made in the U.S.

7 months ago it was Utopie: https://www.newschoolers.com/news/read/Where-Skis-Whom

But I think they also do a thing where you can drink beer and "design" your ski in house and lay it up there.

Neversummer for a long time, then Utopie, I believe back to neversummer again, but not 100%.

They were definitely made at NS at some point.

Personally not a RMU guy myself but that new WLY pro model looks super dialed, would love to see their quality/construction back up the design

Just in case it needs saying: if you think it was Icelantic -- Icelantic is also made in the NS factory.

Massively disappointing??? I dunno, they have a cool, back patio and a great selection of draft beers.

Moment is making some (they love shipping stuff with sub papers for packing haha). I believe most are being made by Blizzard.

This sounds likely...

**Angle Parking** · 09-18-2018, 08:47 AM

Local shop owner said they are now being made by Blizzard and are a remarkably improved product. He is even bringing some in after having ditched the line a few tears back. I’ll let others be the judge of their improved quality.

But nice when looking for a Friday afternoon happy hour.

That's good that RMU has teamed up with Blizzard.....hopefully they can produce an improved product.

What?!?!? RMU is teamed up with Blizzard?!? Tell more.

Edit. Googled that shit. So they moved production to their factory but aren’t collabing... that being said if RMU made a run of RMU branded gunsmokes I’d buy 3 pairs.

The issue in this thread wasn’t that their skis were shit (their skis might be shit but that wasn’t the issue)
The issue was that upper management was shit.
I’ve seen nothing to indicate any change there
