i know that this forum is a place for everyone's ski questions. but something like that, why dont you just go ask your local ski shop?

You can spend and extra 30 bucks for new brakes, or you can just bend your like everyone does. It works fine.

Yeah, thats my only complaint with the fujatives, how can they be such a good park ski if they are so fat? Usually fat skis are heavy and harder to handle in the air.

they're probably not as thick, and therefore not as heavy, as traditional fat skis.

The Fujatives are super light and flexable. You can bend the brake wider but it tends to suck because the the skis are wide and the break starts to bend back. If you dont want anti up for wider breaks then it helps to grind the plastic black part of the break to have more room.

The cool thing is that the look/rossi brakes(at least mine) are pretty long so eventhough they come pretty narrow you can bend them out pretty far and still have brake left to work

You can just have the shop bend them out. My skis are 86 at the waist and we just bent the brakes out with a vice grip and a pair of plyers.
