such a good price on them too. They're too small for me though.

well for park they are great. if youre looking at the ones on SAC, then they aren't too swell on rails, but if you do a well done underfoot detune, you really wont have much of an issue. good in bumps, can do alright all mountain, but not good in pow. its a fun ski though

I decided against it. i was looking at the 182, but I'm currently on some 1080 spaceframes, and they're pretty much the same thing.. my 1080s have lasted me 4 seasons, including teaching, so they're a little burnt out. but I'm out west, I don't do park too much, and I do steeps/pow/bumps more than anything else. hopefully big troubles will come up...

good for switch, park, and pipe. they ski the mountain better than center mounted skis like invaders, but they get very chattery when you try to speed through crud. i love them in the park, but i prefer to use my other pairs of skis for the rest of the mountain.
