THE ARTWORK

Ski The East x J Collab

If this graphic looks familiar, then you were a skier in the 90’s when the Salomon F9 hit the market blowing minds of everyone on the hill.I still remember as a kid seeing this ski in my hands for the first time. As soon as I heard about it, I immediately drove to my local ski shop to check it out, my mind was blown! The ski looked soooo different from anything else on the market. At the time all other skis were sidewall, Salomon was the first to create a cap construction which they referred to as “Monocoque”, originally developed in the aerospace industry. The entire strength and energy of the ski came from the multi layered composite cap that draped down around the entire perimeter and down to the edge. Shortly after, all of the other ski and snowboard brands raced to figure out how to make build cap skis and boards.Not only was the ski built different, but it also looked sooooo different with the ultra bright, electric blue and yellow graphics. I remember being at the bottom of the mogul field and seeing someone throw a spread eagle way up top and that insane multi color base just popped! You couldn’t miss it, anyone riding those skis were a rock star on the hill.

"Ski The East" and I schemed up the idea of building 69 pair of this graphic on "The Fastforward" ski to pay tribute to the F9 legend, and respect to the 90’s. The colors, placement of logos, everything about this graphic is paying homage to the original rebel, and everyone who shredded the original back in the day. You’ll have as much fun riding this graphic reincarnation, and blowing everyone's minds on the hill as as we all did decades ago.We only made 69 pair… and have got a ton of old school fans so they're gonna sell out fast! I hand signed and numbered each, so you’ll be rockin a one of a kind shred stick like no one else on the hill!Follow Ski The East on Instagram and Facebook, and grab some of their fresh clothing and accessories to rep your eastern roots at SkiTheEast.net

First off, there are only 450 pair made... and we've got A TON of east coast fans, so heads up, they're gonna sell out fast! If you’re stoke meter is pinging, then snag yours today before the Ice Lightning melts away.

Ski The East was created by 2 ice coast madmen Chris James and Geoff McDonald back in 2005 here in Burlington VT. I first met them while they were pretending to attend college... AKA driving all over the northeast and Canada making ski movies with their friends. They grew their annual films into the undisputed biggest eastern movie tour of the times promoting ice coast skiing madness like no one else could under the name "Meathead Films." Their movies defined and brought pride to the region like never before!

Eventually they realized they had to also make a living, and launched the "Ski The East" brand. Over 15 years later they now design all kinds of badass apparel and accessories, media, and events that promote eastern skiing with the attitude we all share. They give back even more by being a member of 1% for the Planet, producing clothing through Fair Trade Certified factories, and partnering with 2 awesome non-profits with VT roots: High Fives Foundation and Flyin Ryan Hawks Foundation. All in the name of keeping the shred alive!

I've created a lot of crazy graphics over the years but this one may be the winner! What do you get when you mix a snow leopard, bulletproof hardpack, 80's video game graphics, thunderbolts, and the Meathead mascot? "ICE LIGHTNING" of course!!! AKA one of the nuttiest graphics, and dopest collabs we've ever created to Keep The Shred Alive with our good friends at Ski The East!!!

Remember there are only 450 pair made... and we've got A TON of east coast fans, so they're gonna sell out fast. If you're born from ice... pull the trigger now!!!

The Fastforward

124 – 92 – 111

"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!"

#JFastforwardSki
