Neone had a chance to check these out? Whut the deal with the rounded under boot edges? does it diminish turning ability when u jus feel like cruising?

well you dont really buy those skis to cruise outside of the park. pretty much 100% park ski

i've been riding them for awhile, the rounded edge doesn;t affect shit, it's just like you've been sliding rails for awhile
it's just a convenience, so you don't have to detune your edge under the boot

They are fine for riding outside the park. I rode them on a groomer and in the bumps and they worked fine. But they are more of a park ski because of the butter zone.

even if you ski park skis with dulled edges from rails, you get used to turning down hills. the t-halls wouldn't be any different.

the T-Halls hold a better edge(when new) than something that has been used on rails. I skied em and they were fine everywhere. Skied ALOT like my fujas

i skied both of these before i decides the butter zone on fujas is better as it can hold a butter much better. I dunno i'd say the t-halls are pretty bombproof too. Dont chip as easy as fujas.

there ok, but if you want to ski pipe get an AR5. T-halls are pretty soft for skiing pipe.

yeah the t-halls are soft but you can ski them in pipe harder than ar5s but possible and the mid west kicks ass only way to learn is to fall on rock hard ice you wont want to fall again
