I just got craped out at my local ski shop for saying I was gona get the Mad Trix, I told them I was gona get those or the Public Enemies. They sell the PE's, and I've heard those are a lot better than the 1080's, which I am currently getting a free pair on warranty after my last years ones broke. Just tell me the PE's are better, and I'm getting those.

demo them both and decide for yourself, we can tell you how it rides but telling and doing are completely different, you may not like them, others may, and visa versa

It's so true, every shop I've been to has told me to get 1080's.

if you're light it doesnt really matter. but if you're heavy, or ski really really hard, get the PEs. Wood core has the advantage over foam core there.






I feel bad for people who don't drink, cause when they wake up in the morning, thats the best the're going to feel all day

I have officially stopped listening to shop techs. last year a guy tried to get my friend to buy a pair of 150cm Xcreams, he said they were great for carving, and my friend just walked out of the shop.

your an idiot if you get the 1080's the foam core is SHITTY and makes for a ski that loses it's rigitity within a month of riding them. go with the pe's the weight is good in the pipe it helps you get good pop off the top of the lip.








I said no to drugs, but they did'nt listen.
