well considering they are the same ski as the 1080s from the past 3 years... they are a super fun ski. they arent the stiffest ski out there, but you are light, so thats fine. the ski really well, and like you said, the swing weight is minimal. unlike what most people thing, they hold together too. my 1080s have seen 3 years of hard abuse getting skied across pavement and concrete. they edges are gone, but the ski is still useable for rails, which is more than i can say for troublemakers or invaders that i have used, although both of those are really fun skis as well.

the teneighty's are not the same ski,the teneighty has some plastic sheet in it for more pop so if you want the same ski as the teneighty get the cr pro

incorrect. cr pro doesn't even have the same dimensions as the teneighty. the thruster is essentially the same ski as teneighties from years past. the cr pro is the same ski as the cr pro and candide pro from last season. faster base, more stiff, and a tiny bit narrower.

^yep. cr pro is 76 or 78 underfoot i forget, and in turn has smaller tip/tail dimensions. thrusters are the same ski as the 1080 but obviously with different top sheet and not as round tip/tail shape.
All times are Eastern (-5)
