So, the Crosson Dissenter series are moving to Peak at Bozeman, what about their other skis? Is Crosson still going to produce their own stuff in Seattle?
I guess time will tell.

If truth no longer matters in consumer goods, as it doesn't seem to in politics, what's the point of this whole forum?
Manufacturers have been scaling and laser cutting metal to control ski flexes for years, I don't see this being an issue at all.I’m worried about having a weakened metal right in front of the binding, could be a crack spot.
We've tried this at least twice already. If anyone was actually interested in what sort of ski would come out if Bode was given a lot of design influence, they could have bought a Bomber or Crosson. This is getting kind of tired at this point.Bode is a pretty technical guy. Listen to the Blister podcast with him. So, I’m intrigued by what he could do with a design when he has a lot of input into it.
The difference this time is Bode is talking total control of the ski build process. With that said, Yes he has had a few strikes ... and fouled more than a few off, but I want to ski and ski the product before I coem to any conclusions.We've tried this at least twice already.

The Mahres were on Rossignol, K2 and now Head. How many skis were Klammer on besides Blizzard, Fischer, and Head? Plake with boots... Salomon, Raichle, Dalbello and Roxa.So I am confused--first K2 was the best, then Rossi, then Atomic, then Head, then Bomber, then Crosson, and now Peak. So....which is it?
Ironic, seeing that Crosson has Montana Crystal Race and Saphire machines.Peak is an offshoot of Crosson and moved Crosson's machines to Montana for finishing.

I agree - the article clearly invites the reader to assume Bode was at least part of the design process. BTW no one's mentioned Alpine X here either [which also seems a bit of an odd project with the Miller stamp of approval]The argument is ridiculous. Clearly the article was meant to imply Bode designed the K2 Four.
It really doesn’t matter as it’s the ski industry.
The skis are what they are.
Wonder ifthey’ll be making race skis if he has a racing school. Those have to be tested though.
Racers buy skis that come from an actual race room pedigree rather than wealthy Boomers and GenXers all mountain skiers who can buy into a bit of Bode stardust?However you're right - it's surprising that these are not on the face of things more gate orientated given his pedigree and the racing school.
