i love how they ski, but the whole ptex topsheet thing turned me off a bit, i have serious chippage, and i can ski the wood below the topsheet.

also my PE seem to be loosing pop

i hav a pair of k2 fujis and line mo'ships. i rode the fuji all last season and i hav ridden the lines for 2weeks. All the fujis got was one cracked edge...on one edge of the moships there are 11 cracks and its delamin. I've had the pe's 2 and i would take the K2's over any skis.

i haven't bought another brand of skis in three years and probably won't next year- planning to add a pair of 179 Made'ns to my quiver. best brand out there, as far as i'm concerned.

My public enemies are sooo sick. The only thing is the ptex top sheet keeps chipping and now some of those chips are causing some peeling back of the top sheet.

i prefer the chronics actually i've skied all 3. the fujatives aren't nearly as good as the chronic or chronic wides. Only get the invaders if you're ALL PARK. They suck everywhere else. The fujatives are also more all-mountain than the invaders. so it would be more between the chronics and fujatives. GET THE CHRONICS

I love my vicious. And am probly going to get fujitives or silencers because they are so cheap. but I would rather have STLs or ar6s they are just more expansive. I think I might prefere MSPs over the PE's. Over all though K2's rule for how much they cost. And since it is the only thing that matters the pontoons are the best ski made ever.

I have pistols which I love, but I want to get some vicious'. The only thing I don't like about the pistols is that they are too carvy, and that the tail hooks up sometimes when in steep terrain. The vicious seem to have helped that with the progressive sidecut.

Considering the foil is the same next year, i highly doubt this.


Despite what the foam is for shaving critics say, the foam skis are actually quite durable.

fair enough, you don't like the ski due to design, not solely coz it has a foam core, respect
