I have searched and i have heard alot of different things and havent heard much about the 05's (they are the red ones if your wondering).. theses skis dont have a atomic mounting plate and am wondering the durability of the ski? also what is the weight and the flex like?

actually your wrong on that one...the pre-triplet skis are CRAP....the foam core melts in the summer, they have been known to snap, the top sheet is super thin. Just not a great ski.

I bought the 05 "red" stomps last year and they held up ok for about 70 days of riding but like buddy said they are not the greatest ski for shure, If your on a budget and want a ok all mountain twin there not bad, Flex is medium-soft and the two hollow carbon fibre slats running the lenght of the ski give good feedback for turing but on landings they sound fucked up because they are hollow. Probably the lightest all mountain twin going but they are also the smallest "fat twin" on the market (waist 88cm).
