I love mine great for park but if you want a ski to carve up the mtn on.... well either get an all mtn park or keep a pair of race/carving skis around (thats what I do)

wow, nice find

should be a nice park ski.  low swing weight, race base, great for butters, and not catching on the lip.

I love mine. I wish they had a little more flex but they handle pretty much everything without problem. They can hold a real nice edge on all moutain, even when center mounted. The elf shoe design helps a ton with hanging up on lips and it gives the ski a nice butter zone even though they are so stiff. Great jump ski, not my favorite on rails, but they work just fine.
