It can be slippery as hell actually, depends on how its set up (down, flat) but speed is good.

it slides really well, but sometimes you catch an edge and get chucked. But overall it is good

if you catch an edge on it, i think you will always do the same after cause you made a scratch in it and your edge wil get caught everytime,,,,(what my father said)

usually the first like 10 times you slide it ull get pretty messed up and go flying but after that they get worn in good and they slide really nice

^ you gotta get used to it, it has to wear down.
Suggestions don't use new skids urban skis are the best or skis witha really round edge
All times are Eastern (-5)
