Have you ridden the 4frnt vcts?

bump, I wanna hear a good review on these shits.

I've got some 175's, but they're from 05-06. I dunno how much they changed for the 07 skis.

now is the time that your supposed to giuve a breif reveiw

I ride the 182s, ad they are good for all mounatin, but are mostly for pow. I would not call them snappy, they are more on the damp side

Ok, will do. Thought maybe you guys wanted 07 specifically.

Good all mountain ski. First day I skiied them was early season after no snow for 2 weeks, and they ripped on the groomers, no problem. Big turn radius, so you can get them up to a decent speed without too much chatter. Obviously, they excell in the fresh, and despite the big radius, I find them easy enough in the tight spots (trees, etc) because they're pretty light (noticeably lighter than my AR5's from 04-05). I'm pretty much garbage in the park, but for jumps it's nice having a fat landing platform, and again, they're light for their size (low swing weight). Only place I've had trouble with them is in bad crud, where the width and the lightness make them get knocked about a bit, but nothing uncontrollable. Just might want a stiffer ski for that kind of snow. My only regret is that I didn't get 182's.

how tall are you?

the 182 is pretty stiff compared to the 175. it tracks really well at speed thanks to the long radius. it's fun in the park if you mount them up a bit. the 08's i skied were mounted at +2cm from recommended and they ripped. blasted through crud at high speed super well. they were super maneuverable in the trees and other tight spots. and they floated and surfed through pow super well. i'm definitely going to buy a pair of the 182's for my next season's tree/bc jump ski. really awesome ride.

6'3" so I know, duh, but I got a damn good deal on the 175's. Also, I only weigh about 155, so its not THAT short.
