hahaha well put haggar, i wouldn't say one is better than the other, they both excel in certain areas over the other but the only thing that would pursued me to buy the fujative over the pe would be if i only did rails due to the insane butter capabilities on the fujutive and it's cheapness, but i don't do that many rails and public enemies do fine on them and in the the rest of the park

Rather than start the 301st thread on the fujatives ill just ask here. I'm probably getting the fujatives, mainly for the price. Will they be fine outside the park? I don't see why not but thought i'd ask.

nobody realy knows b/c of the flex pattern. it says they are a park specific ski tho. from what ive seen from turpin, he likes the PEs better.

bigteddy, i would think they would be fine for all mountain, it's not like they're just straight out noodles, the middle's stiff and the ends are soft, sorta liek tm's, which are great for all mtn

Hucksterjibber has some unresolved issues. Have you ever skied a Line ski? Like, say the Skogans? Similar yet more torsionally rigid and stable while turning. Again, try them out first if you can. I know not everyone has the chance, but go out of your way to find such an avenue.

my friends have never had a problem with k2 replacing the broken stuff, so i dont know what his problem is. after hearing a couple stories from a friend who has rode the fujatives, i would say they are probably a little worse out of park than the scratches. sure you could compare them to the skogen, but i bet the fujative is better than them...

it seems like the PE is better for all mountain, and it only costs $75 more at sportsden.com and you know that it is good in the park, id say go with the PE

K2's a badass company for one thing. And for the other thing, I really don't think you can do anything considered 'big mountain' at all on fujatives. I'm sure you could ski from one park to another,but that's about it.

Key words: 'don't think' Exactly. Try them out. Don't make judgements just yet because you don't know how they ride. Don't say you're sure they be okay to ski from one park to another, that's just funny. Pep wouldn't put his approval on a ski that sucks. It's awesome at park and pipe, but it still is a ski, and as stated above it still performs better all around than certain competitors. Again, try them if you can and make you own deductions.

The Fujatives are just K2 trying to make money of the fact that they have a great skier like Pep on their team. So you could say there just like the seth pistols but just not as good

because they are so soft they are really a jib ski only....my friend skiied them a week or so ago and didn't like them except for rails etc. They are to soft for pipe and jumping.....so I've heard.

The fujatives arent out yet are they? Maybe they are, but I think some people respond to this thread, even though they havent even been on both skis. You really shouldnt try and give advice unless you know what you are talking about, sounds like alot of assumptions to me.

Please spell 4FRNT right and dont talk anymore, cuz you sound very queer. I dont buy skis for the accents and the artwork that adorns the tops and base of the skis. And schmies, how do you like the two? What is your opinion on the matter? Cuz I think the thread was about opinions, and you just said to try them out. Im not trying to start crap, I was just wondering about YOUR opinion on the matter.
