you can definately land switch on these, but sending it fast it a bit harder. I would definately recommend the Amp or Gigawatt for heavy switch skiing

You could get away with it on a groomer, but they really mean it when they say "slight rise". It's enough to allow you to back out of sketchy situations in deep snow, but the tails won't rise if you charge switch.
