I ride them as my 100% jib ski. I got them ex-demo really cheap and they do the job fine. It's a K2 so pretty dead feeling but a lot firmer in flex than most people assume it's going to be. Can;t beat them for price though.

Ginge, why the fuck did you buy Silencers? I hope you got them cheap. Mine are at -1 and they're alright. They feel really dead though, but that's K2 for you.

Anyway, buy Ally's Troublemakers. 100 to 120 I think he wants.

pricepoint ski, cap construction, soft - good for a lighter skier, or a first set of skis for the park

How does a solid wood core wrapped in braided fiberglass become noodly in the span of one week?
