QUESTION: Does anyone know what the maximum length is? Because they sound very similar in design to the original Seth... if they make one in something close to 189 it will please me.

will it also be a price point ski, as was the fugative? I know its a fat ski so its gunna be more $$$ but will it be less than most?

Don't think so. It's sidewalled. Generally price point skis thus far have been capped.

they are no longer cap construction so they are probably going to be more, a lot more.

They are sick skis. Lots of fun in all types of snow groomers and pow. If you are only getting one ski these are definately a good option.

Although the fujas are basically a seth, they will soon make a name for themselves. they kill it everywhere on the mtn and yes... and as to the lords they have a rocker i forget how much but its barely noticable but still a great ski and look at the czars

NOT the same ski as the original Seth. This ski has a little bit wider tail and a bidirectional taper with the deepest point o the sidecut moved forward, enabling it to ride switch better.

The Nancy has changed to the MissBehaved, growing in width to the shape of the current Seth and also containing mini-rocker.

Looks like it would be a nice everyday ski or one ski quiver.

Definitely. Sounds great for shitty snow conditions too.

Disorderly flex is stiffer than the what the Fujative was. It is a much snappier symmetrical ski with a bunch of carbon laid in for pop.
