i have never ridden these before, i dont know what year they are. they are the red ones with the ninjas on the tails. i got a pair for 300 bucks total (brand new shit, including look bindings). thought it was a pretty sweet deal. anybody know how they ride? can they handle the park/pipe well? they are not centre mounted.

my friend has some line 1260's with line reactor bindings or whatever they bindings are called and the skis and bindings are heavy and pretty still, so a good pipe ski for sure.

Hey, Shooter McGavin, they are not symetrical, the 00-01 and 01-02 ones were. The 03/04 and 02/03 are not symetrical and are made to be mounted like 7 cm back from center on the 177 models. They are poorly made and will delam or snap after 10-40 days of hard park riding. They are pretty much the perfect weight or flex for light people who only ski park. If you don't ski that hard they can last a long time though, but I have delammed/snapped 4 pair.s

i thought that they were soft, and yea, they should be center mounted, where are they mounted? at the very worst they should be mountted core center. and yea not that great of a deal.. what size and bindings?

FYI
http://cgi.ebay.com/skis-LINE-1260-164cm-twin-tip-park-pipe-twintip-05-NEW_W0QQitemZ120075161486QQihZ002QQcategoryZ16062QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I have these, but got very little riding time in on them. The felt super soft to me, but they are my first park ski, so I don't know how that compares. I'm running the Line binding because I could mount it myself (They mount like a snowboard). What little I was one them I liked, but damn the Line bindings seem heavy.

By the by the ebay seller /\ is a real decent dude.

I was just giving you a basis for comparison since I knew that guy was selling a pair. I think I paid like $90 for mine New in plastic and I got the bindings for like $65 but that was last year LATE in the season.
