Light and fast, but...

By Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete Ranked #8 - Telemark Skis and Alpine Touring Skis April 27, 2011

I have seen a fair number of clients and guides in training this winter and last using these skis. The weight and very light tip rocker make them quite a good ski for the fast and far touring days for sure, but I have also seen 2 broken pairs this winter, and also have noticed lots of bigger, stronger skiers over power these skis, or get tossed around in anything but fresh pow. If you want to ski endless fields of powder, this is probably a great choice, but expect to be bounced around in other conditions. But really, who wants to ski anything but deep pow?
