      Overall Good looking helmet. there is better for protecting your head, but this one looks good. Performance yes protected my head twice, i have 2 nice dents now.  skullcandy headphones got a little blown, Im going to send them in. Magclip goggle thing is super sick Design Looks amazing. Lots of blank space for stickers Value $92 when i got it and i am sure its cheaper now. I would get the basic one next time , not the signature model. Fit M fit me perfectly. I tried on last year's giro encore, cuz they are the same fit, then i ordered it online Durability it dented pretty easily, but i did smack the back tip of my ski into it.

      Overall BUY THEM! But expect the edges to crack if you jib on them. Performance Soo much FUN! Design The look of surface skis cannot be beaten. They felt a lot of fun. The early rise may be progressive technology, but i like it a lot. Value Retail might be a bit steep, but compared to what you can get for that money in another ski, i'd say the value is high. Fit Fit is super nice. i'm 5'11" and 182s are perfect. Characteristics Them skis have a funky early rise thing going on. Now when i use the word funky here i mean it is loish; super fun. They are pretty stiff compared to a noodlier ski like invaders, which is good for skiing and jumping, but still super fun to jib on. Durability Not so much. i think i had 7 cracked edges after 7 days on them. I do slid lots and lots of metal, and the edges are the only problem so far and aside from being cracked they have not pulled out or anything at this point.

      Overall Perfect for cruising and/or charging the entire mountain powder or other wise. Not so much a park ski, especially not the best for jibbing. Performance These performed amazingly for what they are for. they are an all mountain ski, and they destroy that mountain. Design I think they are well designed with a purpose in mind. they fill a type of skiing well. Value Got them second hand. Good value for me. Fit Size was really nice. Characteristics Bit stiff for my blood. Still rather flexy. Durability They hold up well. Sintered bases are hard to break.
