I have the mini enemys and think they are fine, not the lightest twintip, but if you arfe starting out newschooling, they are an awesome pick. If you are worried about lightness though, I suggest looking for sme LOOK bindings that are nice and light. PEACE OUT

i'm wondering the same thing, that new top sheet is so damn sick, and its hard to beat the price. From handling them, they are not as light as 720's, and 1260s(the only other twins at our shop).
its not what you ride, its how you ride it...

upgrade to PE's bro. much better ski and much better investment for long term use. enemys snap like it ain't no thang but a chicken wing.

the thing is tho, enemies cost less, and when they snap, you'll pbly get the public enemies, and for cheaper then the real cost
its not what you ride, its how you ride it...

VERY TRUE BUT I'M NOT MADE OF MOOLAH. SO IN HIS CASE WITH HIS MONEY SUPPLY INSTEAD OF BUYIN A PAIR OF SKIS THAT ARE GOING TO SNAP IN ONE SEASON (I GURANTEE IT) WHY NOT JUST GET FLAT OUT A BETTER PARK SKI THAT WILL BE GREAT IN THE LONG RUN.

the K2s will break really quickly and they dont have a very good warranty system. THe PEs will last a it longer.. they are more durable, but they, still wont last you an entire season. No ski will (under normal to heay use). Go with a company with a good warranty.

yea, my friend had the enemies for 2 seasons, then on a simple 360 the tail cracks down the center and a big peice is just hanging by the topsheet. unrepairable damage. he ended up getting some rossi scratches.
