It's an awesome AT ski. I have mine mounted with a dynafit and love it. It the ski I use in the Tetons all spring. It is a little heavy, but it's worth it on the way down. The only draw back is the rounded tail. A square tail makes it a little easier to use as an anchor. Other than that it is a sick backcountry ski.

Yes, this would be an awesome AT Ski. The rocker actually helps when blazing trail, the ski isn't too heavy, and you will appreciate having a rockered/fat ski once you get to the top of your line. There isnt' a ton of surface area for the skins to come into contact with the snow, but I also ride a full rockered ski for A/T. As long as you really make sure you plant your feet well the skins will stick to the snow fine and you won't have a problem.
