read a couple reviews, meh. for the majority of you that ride them, how durable: topsheet, edges? thanks guys, i am wanting this info because they are 300 in alot of stores right now, so i want to hop on 'em if i like what i hear!
for reference, i have chronics right now, so how durable will they be compared to these? (06-07)

haven't ridden 'em or anything but I have heard that they suffer some topsheet chipping like most other skis, not the worst but not the best

Poppiest ski I've ever rode. Turned pretty well, not to quick but it's a nice flex.

we sell these at the shop I work at. for being an "all mountain twin tip", its a noodle. but for just park work its perfect.

i'm 6'1, 180 lbs, too soft to ski all mountain for me. it would be a great all mountain/park/pipe ski for someone lighter.

i love 'em, for 300 hope on that shit such a sick price, even for 480 they were a pretty good deal compared to the competition.

I got AR5s and they are dank ass shit. If the AR6s are anything like them I would highly recommend them. The topsheet on mine gets pretty chipped but whatever, shit happens

they're a pretty medium flex, especially once they break in they get a lot softer after like 10 days, they are softer than my old 05 PEs, so I dont think they're as stiff as chronics
All times are Eastern (-5)
