I’m hyped to be collaborating for the first time with Bryn Merrell; her desert mountain art is epic! This piece, "Desert Peaks at Dusk," totally nails a Southwest vibe. Imagine the sun setting, warm earthy colors blending into cool blues, lighting up the peaks and desert. It’s like you’re right there!
Merrell’s journey is rad. She grew up in Arizona and worked in the outdoor industry, then switched it up to become an independent artist now based in Tahoe, California. She got hooked on how light and shadow play in nature and sharpened her skills with some solid fine arts training. She’s into Impressionists but made her own path, focusing on the raw beauty of the desert.
Her technique is really cool - layering watercolors, ink, and textures to create depth and movement in her landscapes. You can feel the vastness and solitude of the desert while bringing the rugged beauty of the mountains to life.
I made only 300 pairs of this new Limited Edition graphic on “The Fastforward” ski and hand-signed and numbered each pair. Order quickly before they sell out and disappear into the sunset.

Calling all corduroy killers! This is the quickest and grippiest J ski ever made for ripping groomers and smashing bumps.
"The Fastforward" is designed to empower you to carve ice like a knife through hot butter while maintaining the fun-loving, playful feel J skis are known for. The subtle tip rocker keeps you floating with ease in fresh snow, yet when rolled over, 100% of the edge is engaged, including the tip, for maximum grip. You get a predictable, smooth feel that inspires confidence no matter the terrain; it’s as happy feasting on firm morning groomers as it is exploring the rest of the mountain. Unlike other skis in this category, "The Fastforward" doesn’t require you to put all your energy into it to get tons of power out. Thanks to its "Light Metal" Titanal laminate and Maple wood core construction, this ski does the work for you! You’ll gain power and precision with far less effort, so your legs don’t get burned out. You’ll still be going strong at the end of the day when they’re calling "last chair!"

This ski is kind of a big deal!
These are a barrel of monkeys! So fun and playful, I was laughing the whole way down. A viable option for skiers who just want to get on a great pair of skis and go.

It's a maneuverable ski that really stands out in variable snow, and offers a rare combination of great suspension and a fairly easy-going ride that many people could appreciate.
- Blister Gear Review
A wicked playful ski that you can trust-- stiff, with loads of pop.
