The PEs are amazing for their price. I would buy them! I love my 1080s too!

the PE graphics remain unchanged for ALL of next season, they are changing them the season after next. I just ordered my PEs, they're such a good price and supposed to be a sick ski.

The PEs aren't all that wide... they are about teh same width as the 1080s, Scratches and Armadas, the TMs are skinnier. PEs are like cheaper softer Armadas (but still really good, it is just that Armadas are really stiff)
TMs are like skinnier Armadas... Scratches are the same. Armada is the best overall but they are expensive... PEs will be better in POW and pipe and similar in the park (cuz they are softer) and the Armadas will be faster and better for ripping anything and everything. I don't know about the 4frtns but they look really promising.

yeah i didn't find that good of a reason to spend $200 dollars more for a pair of skis that are a little stiffer. and so the PE is in the mail...

I don't know how many times I've posted this on either this board or the Line board.

I wouldn't buy the PE's. Why? Silva (K2 park-only athlete) doesn't ride them. He rides the Pistols. I was riding with him, Mercon (also k2 park-only), and a bunch of other people. Silva doesn't like them PEs, so he rides different skis. Mercon didn't like the PE's that much either. So if the athletes, who get paid to support the ski, don't, then I would be pretty cautious about buying it.
-------------------
I heard he had a style, and so I came to see him and listen for awhile.

Please don't go, suberban rythem, all the other bands are just shit!

Dangerous objects were left about in the hope that it would do itself an injury, preferably fatal.
But it never did, and instead, hacked up the carpets with knives.
Or burnt enormous holes in the upholstery with acid.

anyone ever think of the fact that pe's can snap easily?

go scratchs, same dimensions of armadas, was good enough for tanner and easley, and strong overall.

All this talk of skis snapping easily is bollocks. Ask about any ski and you will find someone who thinks they are great and someone who says they break easily. Does anyone think that if a ski is really as flimsy as some make it out to be, the company would even market it in the first place?

go with what you like, not what silva or mercon rides. mercon is a fatass thats why he prob hates the PE's and silva rides PE's and pistols. there is a bolle add in the latest powder with rorey and he has PE's on.

whoever wants to get the new skis should try as many of the skis that he is considering and than buy the ones he likes. everyone has a different opinion. I like the air heads. I heard they break easy. I've broken three pairs of bindings. I have not yet broken my ski.
