Dont be a fool, get some real skis please. K2 seem to be the best for that, cuz theyre nice and stiff...

If you're talking Tele, I have a friend who skis K2 Enemies tele and loves them. If you're talking like an AT setup, you're not gonna be able to use them for much besides cruising BC. I've always heard that AT bindings won't stand much abuse so don't plan on still using them for a park ski.

i already have pe's that i ski tele and mostly inbounds. i'm a much better alpine skier so i also want an alpine touring setup to supplement. i know i like the 1080's on and off-piste, but i've never used them for touring. do you actually tour in pe's?
