We’re into top gear. The factory has almost complete the first run of the skis so within 2 weeks all those coming to Loch Earn in Scotland will be able to hold for the first time, A WhiteDotFreeride Ski. Exciting times

The winters coming and the moulds are done

We’ve reached a milestone so a  massive thanks to everyone who’s help us to get to this stage.  The snow has arrived up top in Verbier and the leaves are starting to change colour.

We’ve had confirmation from the factory that the moulds are complete so for those not in the loop, our first skis out of the moulds are the One in 119/89/113 in lengths of 166 and 180. The Preacher in 169 and 189 with dims of 155/112/133 and finally the Redeemer. Rockered with dims of 148/128/138 in one length of 190cm.

We’re going to carry on testing these skis during the 09 season  to get the construction totally nailed with us based in Chatel and R&D testers in Verbier and Mayrhofen and team riders in Meribel and Northstar. As soon as we’re happy with the construction will complete the moulds for the 173 One, the 179 Preacher and possibly a 170 and 180 Redeemer. We’ll also do a limited production run for friends of WDF in Jan so let us know if you want to get involved and we’ll mail you the details.

We’re really keen to test the skis in North American conditions and not just Europe so we’d love to hear from riders across the pond.

Thanks again to all involved, you all know who you are.

Welcome and Hello!
