MonoSki @ OnePiece

MonoSki and OnePiece has something in common...
we both like "one-ness" and "mono"...
We all now that everyone are searching for the ONE thing, Nirvana or whatever...

You can find it gliding on snow (on one ski) or just relaxing in a cool way (or partying) in a OnePiece :-)

At the shop in Arkaden Goteborg, we have a MonoSki (a DURET FREE) in the shop to underline the connection of our "search for ONE-ness!"

More OnePiece/MonoSki exchange will come soon!

MONOSKI @BANFF göteborg

Extreme Monoski Carving
for the people!

I also worked the door and handled the tickets for the extreme film-festival. I stopped some people from entering and demanded "THE PASSWORD"... Most of them caught on very well and stated correctly, loud and clear "MONOSKI"....

Fredrik Forslin 4th place in Derby at Auris!

...Before him there was Xavier Duret (winner of Derby de la Meije 10 (!) times), Bidou (winner of Derby de la Meije 2009 and 2010) and Fifi Supersonic (with his speedski best at 187 km/h)...they all skied on 205cm speedski monoskis.

Fredrik used his Best Off, and nearly got the 3rd place!

At the price cermony in Auris, Rodo delivers the "special price for non-french outstanding performance!

I bet Fredrik will focus and come back next year even better prepared and with an even faster ski!

the RVM tatoo!

The best Tatoo in town!



Marcus is a honorary member in Real Vikings Monoski ...for life!!!

Pierre Poncet ...a legend!

1979 DURET released the famous MONOSKI called "Pierre Poncet"...and 30 years later the "Aniversario Pierre Poncet"...watch the video and you can see WHY this guy has his name on a DURET ski!!!

MONO TEST-tour 2010-2011 FRANCE

old MONOSKIS are HOT!

I have many pintails on a wall in my apartment...as work of art they do a perfect job!
...but for skiing they are OLD and HEAVY and like old golf clubs with wooden sticks...NOT used in a real situation today!

I use my Esprit de Glisse for Derbys, my Extrem Carv for Pists, my Mountain 187 for freeride and a Tricks for jumping (and crashing :-) )

I think a lot of people are interested in MONOSKI but they are just not aware of the development and changes. It is a HUGE difference between pintail from the 80:s and the new ultralight carving boosted models!

the advert below wanted 5000 kr for an old ELAN ...it is more than you pay for a new FREE with new bindings, monobelt, twintip, carving and monoleash!!!
