    What skis have had the best and worst Graphics (random friday thread)

    I am just wondering whan skis people think have had great graphics and which ones were ugly.

    Best
    K2 Kahuna 2003-2004 much cooler than the maden
    Dynastar Big 2000-2001
    The Volkl Line up from this year Sanouk,Mantra,Gotama and Sumo
    Igneous and Capital skis are great looking

    Worst
    Salomon any model just seem to be ugly except the old green ak rockets
    especialy this years models except this year 1080 lab gun.

    My Quiver is an Ugly bunch K2 Seth Pistol Rossi Axiom and Line Prophet

    If ski companies didn't make new skis every year I wouldn't have to get new skis every year.

    Best: Old yellow K2 AK Launchers (with SS sig)

    Worst: All the new K2 factory team series skis with too much crap on them.

    You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig.

            Best: ANT, Vicious, Explosiv (wizard)

            Worst: Most Salomon twins from the last few years (1080, PR, etc)

              best:
              Prior Powder
              Elan M999
              Armada's entire '06 line

              worst or most boring:
              All Salomon twins from the past few years.
              Rossignol's B/Bandit line has always been pretty blah.

                  imagine the karmic repercussions of stealing jerry launchers - my god man, you dodged a bullet...those graphics rule - also AK Rockets in military colors, BD Havocs and anything with NW Native themes (Karhu, Head) - note Fischer is NOT NW Native (and BFU at that...)

                    Best: First year Völkl Sanouk and Gotama (all blue and black) + the Wizard Explosive and Dynastar Arno Adam (you know, the one with the flowers...).

                    Worst: I don't like the look of most Salomon and K2 skis, too "funky". Pretty much all older Austrian/German skis have terrible graphics as well. I don't think the new Fishers are that bad. The Watea looks kinda cool.

                      Best: Scratch BC titty ski. Kneisl Tankers and frog green 777s are understated graphics.


                      Worst: Legend pros are gaudy to say the least. Volkl get it so right, yet sometimes so wrong. The gold/red/black/white AX4s are pretty ugly (bling not withstanding). I painted mine.

                              After giving props to the Tankers, just looked at the 05/06 Tankers on the website and they're UGLY!!! Oh man, someone better get fired.
