I'm looking for a second pair of skis for bump skiing in the east. This ski looks the best, nobody seems to make a straight bump ski any more. I'm 45, expert skier, ski mainly bumps in PA. Any one able to give me a review on this ski in the bumps or any other reccomendations? Looking at 175 length. Thanks in advance.
These skis are great park skis. Super poppy and light for jumps or pipe. The race base is great, just keep it maintained. For a super light setup get the deadbolt 15 bindings.

I like these skis quite a bit in a 180. Not exactly what I need, but I wanted to try a park ski. I wanted a jib ski that favored hard pack, and would ride well switch. I picked these up cheap and figured they'd be just what I wanted to add to my quiver. All my other skis are over 100mm in the waist, so this was going to be my only hard snow ski. I mounted them with BD 02 bindings and had no control. So after one day of that, I slapped on some Hammerheads. The control really improved, but the ski still didn't ride how I wanted. My groomer style is to either go incredibly fast with long turns and straight-lining, or switch skiing mixed with some low spins and moon-walks. I don't go huge on big kickers and tables. I don't ride rails or boxes. A softer, wider ski would be better for me, I think. For someone who does like big park stuff, these would be great. Super fast base, and solid construction. The top sheet chips, though, but whatever. Wear your battle scars with honor- just maintain the bases. Poppy, snappy, solid, fast, and light. Killer ski.
Much better construction than the Chronic. Pretty similar feel, but the TNK is a little damper and has less torsional flex. Great base material, edges are strong, but the top sheets chip a lot. I also like the Antics or Mr. from Bluehouse skis, or the Nine Life from Surface. Bluehouse is a great grassroots ski company with excellent warranties and unbelievable prices. The Antics are like $275 new. Check 'em out. Good luck.
I have limited time on this ski. My brother skis it has his main park ski. My sister also has one of the shorter sizes for her park ski. From my limited time on the ski I can tell that I would love it. It has a nice stiff flex, which would really allow it to work all over the resort, but it is really poppy as well. 2 things that I love in a park ski.
As my review below says, I found these skis to be a bit too stiff for freestyle tele skiing. They have a lot of camber, and a progressive flex. I couldn't really seem to find the right way to ride them. I tried pushing them really fast, but they seemed squirrely. I tried low speeds, and they just didn't give me enough carve. I would check out the Rossignol S3, the Sickbird, Fischer Misfit, K2 Sodo, or the Line Blend. All those I have found to serve the telemark freestyle niche really well. Good flex, good pop, forgiving, aggressive, and solid. Most of the park and pipe skis from 4frnt, Armada, and freestyle oriented alpine ski manufacturers tend to be too stiff for telemark skiing. But that's just, like, my opinion, man. If I were to buy a skinnier freestyle ski, I think I'd go for the S3. I love early rise, even on hard snow.
These sticks rock. They are super stable at high speeds, and with the race base you can get flying down those groomers. Top sheet is unique never seen it on another ski before. It has an anti scratch surface, and the graphic is pretty sick. The sides chip pretty easy but that doesn't affect the ride at all, just cosmetic but they look good a little beat up.
