Sorry I couldn't elaborate earlier. I think we would benefit from some exciting news for beginner skiers, and posting them in the begginers forum.
Lots of info on Rossignol already.........

Trust our judgement..we don't give these out for no reason. I will be surprised if any of these disappoint.How do you give a best in show without demoing or are they things you've tested previews of?
What was interesting is that he skis the FX in 189, and he looks about 180 in height, so confirms that FX skis fairly short.
Yes the construction and shape is slightly different, there is a little(emphasis on little) and slightly more tip rise. The TR on these skis is smaller. 15M in the 166cm.@Tricia so is the Samba the new BP 98? Any changes? Wife is looking at getting the current one of waiting of next seasons.
We have Best in Snow badges to put on the skis that we think will be winners in the category. Most of these skis have been available for us to try before the show but some of them are skis that we are pretty sure are going to wow us based on construction and flex.
Phil thought it looked nice, but the jury is still out for me.That K2 outerwear looks like tracksuit...
K2 has expanded the Charger collection with the new TurboCharger. Kastle has come out with a new RX series with a new SL and GS that will be oh so sweet. AS @epic , the new Fischer Curve look real good too. More to come.What skis are the manufactures showing for the Northeast ICE?

Well, they went... but maybe no booth I guess.
I also do not like the new Kastle graphics on the Fx and the BMX. They look very basic. Too basic for a premium ski, specially the color palette. Not really elegant like the Head Kore. Head nailed it with the KORE graphics. Wow and the shape looks really really interesting. Rossignols graphics also look good and are along that same understated but high tech direction (maybe too much emphasis on the tip tech?). The Armada's graphics, for younger buyers, look great too. Seems that the understated and basic graphic top sheet style is in looking at the Blizzards. I think the 2016 graphics looked more distinctive in the Blizzards and made them stick out and be easily identifiable on the rack.
...the vernacular is a little passé, Lou Dawson uses it on his WildSnow blog, but more recently pushed to updated it to "Pin-Tech".
I get the idea @markjop was just having some fun with you
seems like only for the demo according to info available at the SIA website, which btw I was amazed how big the oakley booth is compared to everything else by looking at the floorplan
