I havent got the chance to try them on yet but I got real good comments from everyone who did.

as for now, I believe they are sold out but there should be more coming after SIA.

i tried them and they were terrible. way to soft and not enough rocker. however, they said they were going to redesign it for next year

I heard there was a recall on 20 or so Rockers, but maybe I was misinformed.

Can't go wrong with Moment's warrantee, though

I heard they snapped quite a bit as well...

What I dont get is why make a ski thats barely 90 underfoot (barely wider than the Volkl Wall) rockered? I guess it helps in park for butters.. but It seems like it would be too soft for jumping or popping onto things..

That's the whole point... a rockered park ski.

Never be afraid of trying new things

How can you hate progression...? If it wasn't for progression then we'd still be skiing on straights with Plake.
P.S. I met a guy the rides for moment, he had the reno rockers and said best park ski he's ever skied. Now that could be because hes for them, but he was damn graceful on those things

i've also been really curious about these.  i've had a lot of fun in the park on my bent's and the idea of a park oriented rockered ski is awesome.  however, i've heard a lot of mixed reviews, and people seem to have had durability issues with 'em.

Hey I'm not doubting anyone's skill, but progression has MADE freestyle skiing.  That's all I'm saying
