obviously the ski is not going to explode if you take it out of the park, but you would not be having much fun on it at anything more than slow to meduim speeds/agressivness...

its just not stiff enough to hold an edge, so expect chatter gallloooooooooor out of it.

i have skied the older model (white and black with the stick figure under foot i think its 04/05 or maybe even 03/04?)...didnt like it unless i was on a rail or in the air, and even then landing i didnt like it as much as i did my chronics at the time.

for in the park, they are fucking dope. especially if they are the resent models from armada..

if i were you i would look into getting another ski that you can keep a decent edge on, not using it on rails, to ski outside of the park, you will have much more fun that way.




that being said, if you plan on just screwing around outside the park, then by all means dude go for it i am just saying it wont be GS or Slalom ski.

kk thnks but ya im goin to be most of my time in the park doing some rails and jumps. but like going out of the park and screwing around wont be a problem thts all i wanted to no . im pretty sure the 08/09 one is alot better then the older one  i heard they made it a litlle bit stiffer.

i had my 08/09 thalls out for my first day today. and for the first half of the day when i was still trying to remeber how to actually ski. they held up real well imo. once i hopped into the park. i fell in love.
but for me, 6'4" 155 lbs (telephone pole. ) im on the 181.
and after one day on them. i think they can shred everywhere.
but thats just my 2cents.

im pretty sure they were stiffened up this year, so they should handle better all mountain and be less of a noodle.

I have the 07/08 ones and they  can go well outside of the park if you are not going really fast cause they are not stiff enought for high speed, but I used to race so I used to stiff skis. So yeah I think they go well outside of the park. Have fun
