How about a Flintstone's line of skis?

The Yabba - 74mm
The Yabba Dabba - 79mm
and...
The Yabba Dabba Do - 84mm :razz:

fred flintstone and barney rubble would probably sue us for plagarism. One of the 80's rockers went after one of the smaller twin tip brands because they knocked off one of their song titles and graphics for a ski...maybe it was Kiss. I don't want Bamm Bamm coming to kick my ass.

Couldn't you get license rights? My wifes company was able to get the rights to manufacture "Hanna Montanna" stuff. They pay license rights to do so.

you could...usually they cost 12% or so...in my past job we joined up wtih Nickelodeon and did some Sponge Bob and Dora the Explorer skis, helmets, gloves, etc...my daughter was psyched to ski on a 67cm Dora ski. But, I don't think the target demographic, 25-65 is going to rush out to plunk down some coin on a pair of flintstone skis. Yabba dabba do or not...maybe yabba grabba dube or yabba grabba brewski...

Ok, how about the Mythical series:

Gryphon - Topsheet with lion and eagle attributes
Phoenix - Top sheet of gold and red feathers
Minotaur - Top sheet of a Bull or Long horns, etc...
Gorgon - Top sheet of the skin of a serpent
