First of all, don't buy the O2s, they are neither powerful, nor good for touring. I agree with Bud, I have both HHs and O1s and the HHs kill it on the downhill. If you're touring all the time, O1s are a great choice, but for aggressive resort tele skiing the Hammerheads are the one you want...

I have both the Hammerheads and the O1's with rid stiffs. The Hammerheads absolutely kill the O1's. Plus the Hammerheads will tour better than the O2's if you move the pins. Definitely go for the Hammerheads.
