no the tip and the tail of the fischers are the same, if you go on the fischer site and check out diff. countries other then US or canada, they have a lil info on the ski in the video thing they have up part III gives you the most which isnt much but enough

Addicts are sick! durable, true twin, layer of titanal underfoot, transparent die cut bases...114-84-114. Lines true twin was actually a couple mm's off the same exact dimensions i believe. They are fairly light, and on the stiffer side. $399. Derek spong, AJ burton, richie paradise, and Kyler cooley are all on them.
The habit is right below it. $299. 111-81-111. true twin as well. lighter and softer.
hope this helps. if you get a chance to demo them definitely do it, you will not be disappointed.

I just had a chance to take a pair of 181 Addicts for a run.
They are completley symetrical (in-fact the rep had one ski mounted forward, one backwards...) I thought they were pretty good, definitely a park only ski. Jumps were very predictable and landings were solid and damp. For 181's, they were sure easy to manuever, spinning was not a problem and they also killed it in the pipe.
I can't comment on durability, but they seemed to be very solid.
Hope that helps, wish I could comment more, but I only had time for one run on them...

I've been riding some old Scott Intoxica P2's 175cm w/ Salomon S900 bindings.
The Addicts definitely felt heavier, but they also had demo bindings on them.
For comparison the Elan Mo2 175cm with demo bindings was much heavier.
It sure didn't feel like I was skiing 181's, I thought they skied more like a 175 or so.
I wish I could have ridden them more, they were so smooth in the pipe!

The flex and weight of them reminded me of the AR5s except these are completly symmetrical. Sick skis for sure, solid choice for next season.
