i have them and love everything about them. Got an amazing flex, got (my) perfect weight to them. not too heavy for doin rails n shit, but not too light so you can get speed. i definitely recommend them. i have mine center mounted as well if that matters

What's your weight? I have the 180's and I weigh 150. I love mine. They're light, poppy and fun. They're too soft for high speeds but I've skied pure ice and some steeps with them and they're not awful. I like them in the bumps. They're easy to swing around.

ninthwards are the chronic, never been on better park skis.  you will love them.  just dont get pissed when your topsheet starts chipping right off

i got some butters and there bending up right in from of my bindings on both sides because of buttering, pretty shitty because i love buttering and shit and can anymore because im afraid they will snap, not the most durable ski but when it comes to jibbing and urbaning theres no better choice.

blew out the sidewall on mine after about 25 days, and top sheet issues, never had skis that chipped like that. but, they are very fun, buttery, but not noodles, i was still able to jump with them with no problems washing out, and super poppy.

My favorite skis on the market. Shitty topsheet is true but it doesnt affect the skiing at all so if ur not worried about ur topsheets chipping get these. So much f***ing pop.

yeah, anyone whoes been on 9s knows they are seriously the best park skis ever made, but they also know the topsheet issues, but 9s warranty department is legit if you get them in at the end of the season in which you bought them.
