try typing "Lib tech"
i only got, eh, i dunno, 60-100 threads. this topic is beat. the general concensous on them is that they arnt (or wernt) dialed in yet, and skied very funky. some people liked um, but the previous skis were not quite rite

I have the 189's. they are fun. REAL turny but this is attributed to the sidecut of the ski and not the magne traction. They hook up very well on harder snow but i dont know about full on ice (ive only skied them@ alta). Bottom line... fun, turny hard snow ski that is well built and unique. As a reference my everyday ski is a 190 gotama. If interested id be willing to part with them for a reasonable price, they have been drilled once for p18's w/317mm sole length.

HAHA.
They're really fun, you wanna buy them off me since I ski Gotamas instead?
The Lib Skis have a ways to go, kinda like the Palmers now.

Uh yeah. They are fun and i do prefer the gotama. I agree,they do have a ways to go. The shovel has a "rise" that is very long (like the sanouk only more so). That in conjunction with the twin tip put the effective base more in the realm of a 177. As a 6'3'' 200+lb guy by the time I have all my work gear I find it easy to feel under gunned and to get too far over the front ( even with more of a traditional mount). That and they are too shaped for my liking. It should also be noted that I, much like everyone else who skis them, have a giant hard on for the gotamas.
