they're a sick ski. if they're skogEn's pro model they're gonna fucking rip it. I had the green bombs like these guys talking about, fucking indestructible nd toit.

is the waist on the year youre talking about still 76 cause thats kind of think if you ask me. 85 is the way to go.

well, i shouldnt say that. 76 is pretty thin. still good, but thin. i like wider skis for stability, but a 76 waist you can relly throw around on the snow, just a little les stable on landings and what not

Last years skogans are pretty nice. I have the pollards and i'm pretty sure they are similiar if not the same ski. Its a lot stiffer and a lil wider then the older skogans. Rips the whole mountain.

they are a really nice ski. 86mm waist. real solid ski for freeriding and trees, but poppy enough for park. i ride them everywhere. i actually like them better than my arvs from last year.

ok i have the skogens....the ones with the ss on it all over it..brown..light brown..dark brown...the 04/05 model...the best skis i have ever ridden easily....my bases and edges hold up AWESOME! ive been riding 2 months hard and no problems except the top sheet chips a little but it happens to most skis...they are pretty stiff but then again im 160 and they are big mountain skis and im skiing them in park...the 86 waist is such a joy when skiing anything and they can really hold an edge...if you have any more questions ask me i hope this helps
