ive ridden them.
to me they seem like an all mountain carver with a turned up tail. the weren't too heavy which i liked. what i didnt like though was how carvy they were, you got locked in a carve way to easily, i personaly like to have some skidding in my turns (im a ski instructor). Personally i felt like it didnt do anything all that well, the flex didnt feel right for the park, yet i didnt feel like i could really ski it the way i wanted to on the groomers.
instead of this ski id get the public enemy or one of the mojos
