They rule pretty much everything except for rails, and they are a little bulky in the pipe.

They totally kick ass all over the mountain, although on ice they're trouble (but that's not what they're for anyway). Haven't done any rails with mine yet, what's wrong with them on rails? we've got one guy saying they aren't good on rails and one guy saying they're dope on rails, what gives?

this will contradict line69, but the moships handled waaaay better on ice than the pocket rockets. i think they did pretty good. and on rails, they work just fine. everywhere else, totally sick. well worth it.

I doesn't really matter how well i think they slide rail, because i mostly slide rails in my skogens.

same with me I use my skogens for park riding and I haven't used my motherships in the park yet. as for my saying they're sketch on ice, I've never tried pocket-rockets so I couldn't compare but I can imagine they would suck on ice because they have like no sidecut. I have Look P11 maxplates (ie. lifters) on my skogens and S912Ti's with no lifters on my motherships and I've never really known if the reason I think they're sketch on ice is actually because they're sketch on ice or if it's because I'm not used to skiing without lifters.

how do they do in the bumps? and how quick are they edge to edge compared to the pocket rockets? which would be a better ski to do anything and everything with cause i heard the motherships are chattery

A bit heavy in the park, but kick ass all over the mountain. I would buy them again in a second.
