yeah im gonna buy em soon, so does anyone know anything bad about them other than big mountain capabilities. it almost seems to good to be true that they are durable light park skis with press points, for so cheap.

Same thing with me. I bet they are good skis, more comp for solomon which is good. I dont think many people including myself have ever ridden them and given a valid opinion, but still, if they are only half as good as pubs I would be happy.

i bought the new PEs over the fujatives only because a) i was leary of a strange flex pattern (figured it probably wouldn't ride as well)
b) i figured that there had to be a reason for the ski to be so cheap
and c) i was a bigger fan of the PE graphics
but yeah to get to the point i absolutely love the new PEs. best ski i have ever been on by far. haven't been on the fujatives yet though. k2 has definately turned into a staple new school supporting company.

they seemed rediculously soft to me. i dont know how they would be good for nosepresses. great for butters, but i think they would fold if you nosepressed em.

Theres only two problems I've had with my Fujatives: There delaming, and there is stress cracks on the tip and tail. Other than that I love the skis and they still ski really well on the groomers.

Don't know if it's a bad thing, but aren't Fujatives made in China? Because PE's are.

the skis are great, there are only 2 bad thigs, when you land super backseat you do have more of a chance to wash out, it happebned to me a few times. and when you get onto rails the tips and tails bounce like mad, becuase of the flex, some people might loose there ballance this way, other then that great skis so far

To the dude whose skis are delaming. If they are breaking, send them in. They shouldn't do that.

Tips and tails bouncing when landing on rails? I think you're crazy:) They are fun, and hopefully if you are thinking of buying them, you get to try them first.

to me, even though its not my skis that are delmaming, that means a lot. to see someone in a company of authority come on and answer a kids question like that. We all know how painfull it can be to try and short issues out like this through emails to certian companies to that definatly helps k2's image in my head
