Anyone heard of a Head Perfect Thang?

Spotted in a local shop, not on any web site known to me, Googling brings no results. Anyone have any idea what this strange creature could be?

Not interested for any practical reason, I just don't like mysteries! TIA

Nice to see you on board!

I have taken a minute to google this ski and have looked at a couple of web sites with VAST ski information.
This is what google got me:

The skipass site doesn't have any information on that particular HEAD ski.

It's got me in a quandry.:(

eng_ch - Was the shop an Intersport?? Some of the big retailers get the ski companies to make up special skis just for them. Sport Export/Coast Mountain Sports/Sportschek (all the same company here in Canada, of which Intersport is their European division - Forzani group) have Atomic do this. They come out with ski that looks like the normal, but it has an extra number or letter. Also the ski is nowhere near the quality of the original. Izor 9.7X??

Jilly, I thought of that but no, it's an independent. However a couple of Intersport affiliates do have the Cool Thang with totally different graphics. Thanks for the thought though!

I know this question was asked long ago, but I recently saw Head's "perfect thang" at a ski shop in Switzerland and did some investigating. I called Head's HQ for Switzerland and they told me that the model was made for the Swiss market last year(2007) and is the same as the '07 Fast Thang. I assume Head no longer makes the "Fast Thang" because it's not on their website.

Here are the specs for Fast Thang from skidepot:

FEATURES

+ Lengths: 150-155-160-165
+ Dimensions: 114-62-99. r = 10.7 Ø 155
+ Intelligence Technology
+ Liquidmetal Technology
+ X-Frame
+ Women-specific swingweight
+ SUPER RAILFLEX 6
+ UHM C Base
