Im thinking about dropping the money for some MSPs soon but I dont know how they will do in the bumps. Im moving to colorado next year so ill probably be spending less time in the park and more in fresh snow and aggressive bump runs. Im 6' and 180lbs. I ride volkl v ski twins from '01 and they are beat up and re-drilled twice.
Do you think it would be smarter to wait for next years models to come out? Thanks for any advice you can give me.

i ride the MSP's (180s) and being 92 mm underfoot doesn't exactly make them the quickest ski in the bumps.....i'd tell you how they were in pow but it hasn't snowed here in weeks.....i got them more as a bc/pow ski (since i already have a torn up pair of fischers) but they are FAR superior to my fischers in the park, and since it hasn't snowed here in a while, thats all i've been riding. i'd recommend the ski, but not as a bump ski. if you still want to support the company though it sounds like the steele spence pro model will be a little less thick underfoot which will help in the moguls. i absolutely love the msps's though, they just aren't that great of a mogul/ice ski. hope that helps

colorado blows right now... this is one of the worst winters i have seen in a while, and ive live here 17 years (my whole life) even though i cant remember the first couple years... but ya, we need snow bad. its snowing right now as i type this, but the most that has actually accumulated is 1.5 inches. total bummer.

as much as i dont like perpetuating the hate, people that say skiing bumps is gay, they are just the ones that are stuck in the park all day. just because its hot right now doesnt mean you should limit yourself only to park riding.
tons of new school skiiers used to race bumps and thats part of what made them so good, if you know anything about skiing i dont have to list them.

^^yep MSP = what you said... also, im working on that s rail to, i cant make it to the second curve, but i can feel it coming. how about the BBQ rail, that thing is huge, ive only seen one person do it, and it was a snowboarder (he just 50-50 it)

5050 for a SBer is like not even jibbing, it's such a joke
unless the rail is curved or lots of kinks


anyone wanna trade movies for my brand new session 1242 or RFA?

i agree, but you need to see the BBQ rail to understand, i want to say that it is at LEAST 20 ft tall (rainbow) its pretty large in compairison to other stuff out there. what cool though is during the night skiing at keystone they can light it on fire because it has a gas line running down the middle of it. dont know if thats too good for your skis, but it looks cool.
