Head Park skis

Personally i think its really noticeable that Head is pretty much off the map as far as park skis go (other than the JO pro)

Frankly i wanna see if anyone else has ridden, or knows about these bullets?
I love these skis... for a lighter weight rider like my self.. i can really butter these easily... Plus with a head 12 din binding i haven't found a lighter ski (ive checked too i work on a mountain)

PS: ignore the AR6's im too lazy to take a new photo

Made in Austria
Super soft
Surprisingly durable

i rode on the bullets this season because they are stronger on rails than the JOs and i loved them.... the skis are fucking sick, apart from the graphics which i didnt really dig.... head is definatly the most underated brand out there, no damage to them over the season and still got nice pop ;)

i just replaced my JOs after two seasons on them but i really loved them. it really surprises me how few head parks skis i see in the park considering how good they are. it is probably because they are so expensive.

Bump. Anyone got any opinions on how soft these bad boys are? Do they hold up ok on jumps?

the bullets are definatly on the softer side... I have mine center mounted, and under the foot is really stiff and solid! but from the bindings out to tip/tail it is a really soft ski which makes it easy to comeout of a jump if you land back or forward seat.

its also really really really light!   with my peak 12 binding and at 171 long i havent found a lighter ski/binding yet

its a much more precise ski than the afterbang... much better flex points due to full on sidewall construction

Head also gave these skis a more natural sidecut  as they say.  Makes it easier to revert from swith and forwards
