One of the most playful skis around.

These skis are super fun. The rockered profile makes them really easy to do butters, presses and noseblocks. They are wicked fun in the park, similar to invaders/ anthems in the sense that they are symmetrical noodles, but the rocker makes them ski like nothing else. You have to ski it to know what it feels like, but they are great skis. The rocker also makes them float pow decent, but they are still center mounted skis so they aren't really meant for it. I do ski them all mountain from time to time, but I have another pair of stiffer skis for when I really want to rip. If these are your only ski's I wouldn't get them unless all you are 100% rails or close to it. They do ok on hardpack and groomers, you'll be able to control them fine, but at high speeds they get a bit chattery, but what do you expect fro a ski where the tips and tails are sticking way up in the air? On jumps, the pop is a little weird and hard to get used to due to the rocker, I feel like I'm popping off my toes more than my tails like in a ski with regular camber, and I start to feel a bit uncomfortable on jumps that are bigger than 30-35 ft, because they are so soft and the rocker in the tails makes it easy to wheelie. Overall they are super playful skis though, by far my favorite ski I've ever owned. I would highly recommend them to any intermediate to advanced park skier. The graphics are dope as hell too. Sure to get you noticed. Biggest downside to these skis is that the topsheets chip a lot easier than my other skis, but I have last years model, and I hear they fixed that somewhat this year. Although any skis with sidewall construction will have that problem, and its only cosmetic anyway.

The Final Word: super playful skis. SO much fun, but I must call them what they are, symmetrical park noodles. I wouldn't be dropping any cliffs or hitting any big lines with them for sure. Don't expect the rocker to make them a one ski quiver.
