wow, idiots, liberties are pretty weak. fishers are realy nice, i had kehuas all last year and they ripped everything, no core shots, only one edge rip out when I cam up a little short on a disaster. it was fixed, and they still rip, highly recommend fischer skis, the bindings are so-so.

they are great skis, i was on the kahua all last year... real sick. The addict is a true twin tip as well. The camber may be the best out of any twin tip out there. so saying they "suck" without any explanation as to why, is not much of a statement.

agreed...

the addicts were one of the sickest twins I tried all last year, make sure you get a longer length because of the same tip/tail and center mount they ride really short...

Fischer skis are fuckin sick. The park skis are just as good as any other companies. Their race/RX skis are top of the line though. I have some RX8's for when I'm out of the park and they are so fast.
