I heard they are a little softer and a little more rockered so its more of a powder directed ski this time

it depends where u live.
Definitly not if your in the midwest or east.
But i think it would make a pretty good everyday all mountain ski for out west.

^^wtf? of course you can ski it on the EC. the seth, or any K2 for that madder, has a history of being very versitaile.. ive seen people on maide'n AKs at whiteface (ICE) and hellbents are gore. and EP pros.. so im sure a ski with a little rocker + decent skier = good skiing

they are fine on piste, the mini rocker is really barely noticeable. they arnt a hard carvin ski or anything, but they handle fine at speed. they are just dirt slow since they are bigger than the previous versions. but good god, in pow, where theyre supposed to be, they are incredible. very surfy, and manuverable, but still enough ski to get through crud without killin ya
