Parles vouz frances? Mmmm... No.

Yesterday I met the guys from Coreupt Skis again- Pierre, Grulain, a team manager, and Steve.  I had met Pierre and Grulain before, but this time it was after I realized what or who Grulain Chicerit was.  I met him in Munich at the ISPO show, and talked with him for 10 seconds.  Since then, he placed 3rd at Kirkwood FWT, after taking 4 years off skiing to drive rally cars.  So, he's pretty much a rad guy and I just thought he was some frenchie with enough cash to start his own ski company.  Well, its quite different than that.
Anyway, I got to see a couple new models, the Slasher and the Banger.  The Slasher could fill a spot in my quiver for next season, so maybe I'll get a pair if it skis well.  Monday or tuesday I'll get that chance.  It is basically the Born to Drop, but narrower.  It could be an everyday ski for snowbird on years like this one, where there is soft snow everyday.
I'll put up some info when I get a chance to make some turns with them.
