Joe:
Voile Charger?
-Great intro to the latest design ideas
-A fat ski that turns
-8 lbs
-very similar to DPS Wailer, but lighter, and cheaper (DPS fans feel free to argue skiing characteristics)
-historically voile offers 1 year warranty, but I don't see that mentioned on their website currently
-On my wish list, along with a burning desire to demo NTN (maybe I could take them for a spin?)

I thought about the Charger, and Voiles lineup of skis are very good in the pow and spring glop. But they have a tendency to be worthless when the snow gets firm.
Maybe the Charger changes that though?
If you have the boot that fits, no problem checking them out.

When I saw you taking that fat NTN setup down Pinball (off the King), I figured that maybe I need to rethink my tele setup. If it's good enough for the champ, well it's good enough for me.
No harm done- Spademark is all the rage! Uh...by one guy..
Just unfounded...But when it picks up steam watch out.
Last night I was dreaming that I was flying around the hill on a pair of leathers, so anything is possible!
FWIW-I see that the only change in the newer TX-Pro boot is that Scarpa is using a tongue design liner instead of the overlap. It may make that boot feel softer, which in my unskied opinion does not need to happen. Also, It bugs me that Scarpa chose an intuition liner that has a honeycomb bumpy surface on the interior of the liner. It seems that it is more of a foot irritation (especially touring) than a smoother silk surface. Anybody know why they do that? You can feel it all the time and it is old school as far as liner design. >

Oh yeah Matt,
I was assuming that you like your NTN setup?
Have anything to share about that?
