Has anyone used this ski? It looks pretty sick but the nordica website doesn't really say much about. I search-barred by the way. I am considering this ski to buy for next season. I'm 5'6" and 140 pounds, thats about 167cm and about 63kg for you foreigners. I'm just wondering how stiff it is and how it good it is on piste vs. off piste?

I don't really know anything about it except it has flat camber and dimensions something like 130/100/130.. sounds like a backcountry jib ski to me, probably soft for a Nordica ski.. but I'm just guessing.. Somebody correct my post.

not, supper stiff nor supper soft, nice medium flex.   One of my favorite skis of the year. Its just awesome.  Really great ski, for soft snow, or just some one who likes a fatter ski.

BUMP

I'm very interested in these skis now.. anybody who has them or has ridden them? What are they like? I am getting a symmetrical ski for next year and it's between The Zero or Anthems.

I've got a pair of Anthems and I love them in the park, but the idea of a fatter ski that would be a little more versatile with no camber really appeals to me.

i demo'd them last season at the post-sia ski test at Kirkwood... they were pretty fricken sick..

basically, imagine a VCT, centremounted, and the feel of a symmetrical ski.

they float well, are relatively light for fatter sticks, and they're sick as shit on park jumps.
