its more of a bc/pow ski......it's got metal in it, so dont expect to do much in the park w/ it.....ive seen/felt it b4, and its got nice stiff flex, should be a sick bc ski

stiff flex-> not strictly a bc ski

my guess it they will ride similar to the v-pros but be more stiffet torsionally and have a stiffer flex pattern

just throw caution to the wind.

i saw tufflemire riding them at copper, and he said that they are actually a little softer in the tip and tail compared to the vpro and they have better pop. i could just be on crack tho

there was a vid of matt phillipi (I think, maybe someone else?) throwing disgusting cork 3s, switch rodeo 7s etc on them. so I don't think they are too bad for park :)

'can you read what that says?'
'donna simma?'
'yes, that's right. now how would that appear in a phone book?'
'simma, donna?'
'that's right now Simma down na!
