Are MSP 187's a good ski? I'm thinking about skiing snow with them. Do they turn on snow? Hows the parking lot? Do they turn there? Will they fit in my Rocketbox? Thanks in advance!

Yeah they are a good ski, I mounted mine on the "freeride" line. I find them a little too far forward even on that line to charge superhard. They arn't very soft so they don't arc well in powder. They are pretty stiff and solid, they plow through crud like a dream. They also have lots of tail and are great for stomping cliffs. I think they are great in the park, I'm just gonna keep em as a park ski this season. All in all they are a good backcountry jib ski.

Thanks Ice-Is-Scary... Can I call you Ice? Or scary? Speaking of ice, how do they work on ice? Can I run NASTAR courses on them? Because that's what I do. I run amateur races professionally. No, really. And then I make movies from my racing footage. The next movie will be called Bamboo Crunk. Buy erich's skeeeze!

No chatter in the ice department, but they don't edge back and forth too quickly :D

Thanks Ice! I like to ski switch, A LOT! In fact, I even load the chairlifts switch. Can I mount the MSP 187's backwards, so the tip is the opposite direction?

Now the problem with our world, the lack of respect.
For our earth, for our children, for the future we neglect, for the words, for the values, for the god we select.
Millions die everyday withough a cause to effect.

Yes you can! I re-mounted mine like 3 inches forward of center, there's no point of skiing forward anyway!
