my friend has a pair that i can get for like $60- think they'll be a good park ski? i love my walls but the edge is falling out and they're in their final days. mostly i just want the PE's for the OG image. will they ski like shit and be really heavy?

Theyll be heavy no doubt but still a fine ski I skied on those things as my first twin tip and would love to get them back. Definitely center mount

I had the year befores (the white tips)--I believe the construction and profile was nearly identical. I had mine center mounted and really enjoyed it. Only problem was tails snagging in the bumps because of the camber and high tail profile. But I adapted pretty easily to that.

I have 2005 PE's mounted true centre as rock skis. They give me basically no issues (not that I'm ripping in early season or late spring). Really solid ski, especially since I have beaten the shit out of them for 4 years (~6-10 days per year on rocks/grass/parking lots/etc) and they are still kicking.

I would jump on those if I were in your position. Centre mount has been fine for me.
