Does anyone know if they are true twins are the tails flattened out a bit or are they like the tips? Can i mount them center, or where is the recomended mounting point? Are they mostly a park ski or all mountain?
Thanks for the help

hehe i wouldn't advise that, i don't know much but they look to be 3/4 twins but supposedly they're more of a twin than last year which i find hard to believe, pm Bluehouse with all of your questions, i'll get back sooner with what i know but i'm not sure about this one, i'm wondering it myself actually

ya cuz im straight park rat and their skis look sick and i like everything about them but if its not a full twin then why bother, because then it prolly wasnt meant to mounted center either.

well they're not symmetrical but they're fine for mounting center, i rode center mounted ones last year and they were sick, these skis are so fun in the park and full twin isn't that big a deal, i mean as long as it's curved up a good amount you can still ski switch

The dims on the MRs are the same as last years. They aren't totally
symmetrical but the difference between the tip and tail height is less
than 8mm. Any time it's less than 1cm difference it's usually
considered a full twin. They are designed to be center mounted or just
behind center depending on what you usually ride.
If anybody that purchased last year's model wants to add their comments about how they ride switch that might help.

And after last years skis falling apart, I need to see how this batch goes for this year, and then maybe buy some next year.

I said it in the bigger thread on BH, if the dimms are the same as last year, going switch will be no problem. I had no problem landing switch in sketchy shit, ripping through a little EC powder, ice, spring slush and just plain going balls out on the morning fresh-groomed. If you cant do any of those when riding MRs, you should...get better at riding switch =P
