I am really interested into how these skis perform all mountain( not powder, but outside of the park ), as I am looking into ski that will be used 50/50 park/all mountain with emphasis on park. I currently own line opus for deep snow/freeride. Would 180 danollies 2015 feel really unstable on groomers?(for reference, I find opus in 185 really stable all around)

They are a symmetrical ski which will effect its all mountain performance a tiny bit. They're 95 under foot so it'll be a stable ski, just wont carve like a normal "all mountain ski." They also have a two year warranty, even if its park damage (blown edge), which is dope

i honestly find skis that are symetrical and mounted center ride just fine all over the mountain. but as for a ski thats not symetrical center mounted then thats a different story. the da' nollies are symetrical so they will carve and ride just fine when mounted center. as for the flex pattern i have never flexed them. good luck man

I checked them out about a week ago and they are by far one of the softest skis out there.

So would that mean they are unstable on groomers at speeds?

nah. it's a ski, if you're a good enough skier any kind of normal ski is going to be fine. I've skied a few icelantic skis and I liked them all. My skis are old k2s that are super floppy but I dont have any high speed stability problems.
