I got a pair, haven't ridden them yet but I can't wait for some super nice powpow...they are huge though, they really are, I'd say if you have the coin and think you are capable of riding them, then you should go for it...if not, well just sack up and buy them anyway, I was kinda worried at first that they'd be too big, but I can't even wait to ride them now, they just look like so much fun, total powder domination.

you think these are just pow skis, i know the width but do you think these will charge in pow and have enough sidecut to manage the groomers?

130 waist on groomers? Life will suck if you hit any ice. From what I've read, you don't want to own these unless you live in SLC, Tahoe/Mammoth, Whistler, Fernie or a similar area.

you should just say PNW, which includes washington and oregon where mr. pollard lives. i'd say buy it if your west coast and either plan to ski almost all pow, or are going to use it as a quiver ski. if this is going to be your only ski and you plan on taking this on groomers or park, look into some prophet 100s, sick ski which will float plenty good, but be able to handle the rest of the mountain.

I bought 05/06 130's and put Deadbolt 816's on them, however I havent gotten to ride them yet. I did do a lot of research before buying and after talking to Josh at jibij I decided to get them. Josh said they handled well all over the mountain. Of course they excel in powder, but they also hadle well in tight trees, groomers, and even the park. They have a 18m radius which contributes a lot to it. Plus they aren't as heavy as people think. 130's w/ deadbolts is a good setup.
