        Overall

        this ski is awsome but not a one ski quiver if you want a park, BC booter, jib, pow pow, twin tipped ski. i've deff. got my moneys woth out of this ski.

        Performance

        Great perfomance for a all aroung bigg mt. ski kills it on the groomers and can deff. take the bigg mt. lines and is fun in the powder but its a lil thin for a super funn time id rather ski something fater and sofer for pow but thre quick in the trees because of there nice sidecut and there awsome on the groomers they have titanium or something in them so when you clink them together it makes a metal sound its kinda funny. They turn great you can make shor or long turns easily in any snow but there deff. not a park ski their not twin tiped really like 1/3 twin tip if theres such a thing so leave the park for your other skis.

        Design

        I like both years graphics the bases on the 06's are beter i think than the 07's. their not the heavyest ski but they arnt light the mantras would work amazingly for AT. and there a great design to put stickers on;)

        Value

        i think there a good price if you get them a lil cheeper than what they are at full price but i think all skis are like that so ya there a good price.

        Characteristics

        The 2006 version is the one im riddeing on but my freind has the 2007 version. The 2006 is a medium flex,softer in the tip stiff under the foot and a lil stiffer in the tail kinda poppy and the 2007 is baisicly the same ski but stiffer iin the taill which is great for grooms but if you ask me the softer tail makes it a lil more fun in the powder.

        Durability

        I've been on them for about two years and they still have an awsome flex the only thing is cosmetic. just a little chips and not delam but the start of it i dont think it will get too worse because they havent gotten worse latly but w/e just cosmetic stuff that you can hardly tell when your skiing.
