Apparently the members of Metallica love skiing? But seriously, so says their website.
They are teaming up with Armada (of course!) to make two versions of the Metallica pro model.
The skis underneath the graphics are the Invictus 95Ti all mountain ski and the JJ 2.0 powder ski. The skis are already available for pre-order. The JJ skis are $800 ($400 deposit for pre-order), and the Invictus are $750 ($375 deposit for pre-order). Unfortunately, you won’t be able to rock these until next season, they are slated to com out in the fall of 2015.
… But wait, there’s more! In addition to your snow shredding (as apposed to guitar shredding) skiing, Metallica’s stamp will be on a Hans windbreaker jacket and Decker Gloves, both inspired by their Master of Puppets album artwork.
After they posted the news on Facebook, there was a mix of responses. Leave it to a metal-head to speak their mind.
