How high is the back tip on the concepts? I was watching last years Winter X Halfpipe on TV a little while ago and it looked pretty small. I'm talking about the 2003 ski btw.

Ive skied on concepts for 2 years and have never had any problems with the rear tips. I wouldnt worry about it.

I guess I forgot to add how the rise on them is compared to the front tip. It's not really how high it is (although 32mm is pretty sweet) but if there was a ski where the back tip just shot up you'd be plowing snow with them going fakie. If they gradually slope up you'll be maintaining your speed better. I guess that's what I was asking.
