These two brands that are under the same umbrella have been battling it out since day one. Personally I would rather see the lines complement each others sales verses trying to cannabalize them. But I guess that the Tecnica group doesn't care if the money goes in the right pocket or the left. I would be more concerned that the money doesn't go in Amer or Rossignol Group's pocket.Good stuff!

At this point it is staying the same.Will the current Rustler series remain? or are they changing that core in another year or so?
The differences between these skis go well past the 1mm waist difference. Don't get hung up on the numbers.Blizzard in a 97 under foot in a 165 length.
Nordica in a 98 under foot in a 165 length.
Which will fill the void as my 88 compliment ski?
I've always liked how both brands ski.
