Are Rossignol or Dynastar making any alpine boards?
I know that Ross used to have alpine boards. And i heard rumors that they would start again. Is that so?

rumors....
dynastar is dead when it comes to snowboards...and i'll try to get info about rossi...but seeing the new logics of the company (quicksilver...) it seems like chances are small!

Rossignol stopped alpine board production in 2001. I have their before-last model 2000, 159cm. Anyway the shape didn't change for the 2001 season. But a great board! the longest they manufactured was 184cm. History: http://www.rossignol.cz/00_01/snow/boards/worldcup.htm
Board? Just a Choc, 180...
hi
I ride this one http://www.epinions.com/otdr_snowboard- ... Race_X_VAS , 176 cm . I think this is the last Rossignol's race board.
awsome board !

Gliding on Snowboards,
like Pogo, Kessler, Virus, Hot, Nidecker and others,
from 151 up to 183 cm and 14 to 27.4 cm width,
covering any kind of shapes with
any kind of boots and bindings.

There are some Tomahawk Rossignol decals made in 2003/2004 for Rossi (184 GS and 16? slalom). Some were sold by a former Austrian racer on ebay last year and the one before. They do look like Rossis in pictures tough. Maybe even 04/05 were available - can't remember.
I think 02/03 could have been the last year. There was a newer design than those pictures (plain yellow)

I'm fairly sure that Dynastar are neither making any alpine boards, nor considering doing so.
A neighbour of mine works for Dynastar (race ski development in Sallanches), but all the snowboard development has been moved to Spain I believe, so he probably won't have any useful information. I'll probably see him tonight, I'll ask him anyhow.

Re: Yes
I spoke to my contact last night (took a bit longer than expected) who said that, basically, yes it is. He was a bit cagey about it, though.nils wrote:I would be interested to know what base they use on the top end race skiis ( World cup).. is it still 4000R?
