Jon Olsson's Custom GS Skis

Spotted somewhere near Austria, these are, as labeled, Jon's race skis for the year.  Don't let the bottom photo fool you, they're not bent.  The last person to have a custom graphic laid up for a pair of GS skis was... anybody?  Ever?  This is basically the equivalent of Michael Jordan's original pair of Air Jordans.  Makes you wonder why ski companies don't do more of this kind of stuff.

Notice in the detail how many marks there are from Jon setting his pole tips in the plates and on the ski on the way up the poma.  There's lots of them on there, proof that these race skis are work skis, and that the owner has been hard at work.
