After testing a plethora of 2012 skis over the past 2+ months, I can say that one of the best skis I've clicked in to is the Blizzard Black Pearl

Blizzard Black Pearl review
Review: 2012 Blizzard Black Pearl
Since I've posted my reviews on SkiDiva and EpicSki I've had some women interesting conversations with people (women and men alike) who have checked into getting these skis for next season and are finding that their retailers are holding off on ordering the Black Pearl because they're concerned that the graphics will not be embraced by women. But, why? Why wouldn't we embrace a great ski, no matter the graphics? why wouldn't we embrace the graphics?
Both Maggie(post 5 in her review thread) and I(in the first post of the thread) have described where the Bull graphics came from and the significance to the line, and both of us seemed to get the same inspiration from the purple bull with piercing pink eyes the second we clicked into the bindings, yet........there is a chance that retailers have disregarded the idea that women will buy this ski.
How do we, serious women skiers, get the retailers to get it?
How do we get them to understand that its possible that we like the graphics?
How do we get them to understand that, even if some don't like the graphics, we'll buy the ski because it rocks and we want to rock on it?
