yes i have used the search bar i just wanted some more specific opinions. i read they're pretty heavy but are the tails still pretty snappy for the park? i'm 5'8" 150 lbs, and just ordered some 179's for a hella good price. yes i am stoked on the extra length and don't want to go any shorter. how about swing weight? i probably will probably be riding them mostly in the park for the rest of this season but i could deal with them being burlier cause i'll be getting a more jib specific ski next season. any opinions would be appreciated thanks

i have the 06's and i dont think theve changed since last year. There stiff and kinda heavy. like cant flex them. but they still handle really wel in the park you just have to change how you ollie to get used to the lack of flex. and there good on groomers and lighter pow. great ski overall though

Fujatives aren't snappy either. When you try to load them up to do an ollie they just mush over and you butter instead.

Uhhhh.....are you fucking kidding me?

The Fujatives are equavailent to a wet noodle. They are not 'snappy' at all.

The PEs are a fairly stiff park ski, thus making them MORE 'snappy'. Stiffer = more pop.


PEs > Fujative

i love my 07s... def hard to press with them but it is possible. I'm 6'1 180 and I have the 174s... they're heavy but sooo stable that way and to be honest my rotations seem to come around easier with a heavier ski. Out of the park they rock def better than the other park skis i've toyed with... not fast edge to edge but you can really hold an edge with them and push em plenty... def the best part of having a stiff ski like this.

right on guys. i think i'm gonna stick with them. thanks for the input.

.. now any suggestions on mounting points? i don't think i'm gonna go true center cause i still do want them to be able to shred the mountain pretty well, but i'm definately gonna go further forward. anyone know where the forward mounting point k2 points to is in relation to true center/core center of the ski?
