If you are looking for an all-mountian ski that can perform in the park go with the PE. The Fugative is a park spicific ski. GO here and look at the ski matrix at the top.... http://www.k2factoryteam.com/products/factoryskis.asp

thanx nick, but how is the public enemy worse than the fujative on rails. it should be easier to slide rails on a smaller ski, right

the fujative has a very unique park-specific flex that's better for park but not as good for all-mountain compared to the PE. as far as rails go, i guess the fujative is probably lighter so maybe that helps... but whatever. for all-mountain get the PE

ya give me your height, and weight and I'll tell you what size you need, the K2 sizes are weird how they measure it... but I havn't skied on the fugatives so I wouldn't know how they go on rails. They seem to be working for Pep. My Public Enemys are awsome on rails

the fujative is fat at the waist for a different reason than other skis, it's for solid landings and stability only not really for floatation, if you want an all amountain ski don't even think about the fujative

I just ordered the 179 Fujative... They're definitely a park-specific ski...

But I already have a pair of Crossmax 10s for ripping groomers and a pair of Kris Ostnesses for big mountain... So there ya go.

Get the PE if you can only afford 1 ski. The Fujative is being offered at an intro price of $299 right now, which is ridiculous for such a pimp ski, but if you can only get 1 ski, get the PE.
