i know the differences in spec and everthing, but do they really ride differently? is the added 6 mm really a difference? i think im going to get either the TMs (165) or PEs (169) next year, but i want to know if the added size really matters that much

they actually ride shorter than the concepts did...because of how soft they are they are killer in the park...but..you lose some of the allmtn capabilities that the concepts had.



well to keep it real I started being a Poser Poser. I dress and act like a poser, but i'm not really a poser. I just pose to look like a poser posing. you know just keepin it underground

lose allmtn? what? the concepts were so skinny you couldnt touch pow with those, the TM is alot fatter so im not sure how you would lose anything.the concept was probably better in the bumps but who cares. TM has better pop and its alot more stable.

they lose the carving capabilities the concepts had...because they are soo soft...they are much better in pow...trust me i skied the concepts for a 1 1/2 yrs and then switched to tm's.

I think the TMs are a much better all mountain ski than the concepts. I mean, the concepts don't even come close. I used to ski the concepts for park, and another for big mountain. I just ski the TMs everywhere now.

1 thing. test them. goto the k2factoryteam.com ask the message board, a rep will tell you. ask sean1446 or whetever and he will tell you how they ride. ASK THE RIGHT PEOPLE?
