alright, i did searchbar and there wasnt anything about this. How are they for just all mountain carving?

is the base actually slow?

andd if you post some pics of them up close that would be sick(sidewalls, edges ect.)

the base is slow when i tried them, but they may have not been waxed. in the park they kill it, out of the park they are a little strange. after a run or two you'll get the feel of them and be able to carve them fine

they were a little different right off the bat, but after one run i got the hang of them. they rip on groomers. they are stiffer than anthems/invaders so they handle really well for all around skiing. much better than i thought a symmetrical park ski would.
