Remember! parabolic skis already have 4 contact points and the reason magnitration was invented was to give snowboarders more than 2 contact points... ok, stay with me... if you want to float powder, ride a snowboard because it will have a bigger footprint than any ski... if you want to ride rails, buy the cheapest twin tip you can find because you will destroy them... if you want 2 hit jumps, buy something big and stiff so it will hold high speeds and pop hard... and if you want to do all of the above buy at least one pair of everything. NO true skier or boarder is truly prepared without 3 different setups. YES it is expensive but remember this is not a sport it is a way of life, stop trying to buy one size fits all gear from sky mall.

the extra contact points are meant to allow you to have more of an edge when setting a turn, not for extra float.... and coincidentally, with the magnetraction, you can have more dull edges and still have a more effective edge because of the added contact points, which makes the edges last longer and not crack on rails
