What Moment Says about the Sierra
“Nobody’s been asking us to change the Sierra–in fact, quite the opposite. People have been asking us not to change a thing about it. But because we love abusive emails and sarcastic commentary, we went ahead and did it anyway. We didn’t mess with the layup, the sidecut, or the way it rips in all conditions from coast to coast, because hey–we’re not suicidal. All we did was give it a little more oomph, so it exits turns a bit quicker, engages a little faster and gives you more confidence when you’re really puttin’ it down. If you hate us for it, that’s fine. We can take it. But don’t forget to say sorry when you realize how wrong you were. (Note: we prefer apologies in writing, ideally attached to 12-packs of beer, but 6-packs are acceptable.)”
