I love these skis....

...but I broke my arm the first day on them (after 25 years of skiing and no injuries)! End of day...tired, marginal weather, chasing a guy half my age on a snowboard through the trees....guess I would have to say operator error. They are incredibly responsive at higher speeds, will do anything you ask, instantly, especially off-piste. They eat up bad terrain and, in my experience, do well on mogus (didn't try iced up fields.) But my problem came when I slowed down in the trees; when I came out of the trees and quickened my speed, their sudden increase in responsiveness got me. I have to agree with other reviewers that they are just not as responsive at the slower speeds. I am 5'5", 130 lbs and ski the 161's. I'm keeping the, though and will rock 'em for sure this season.
