I got some old 4FRNT MSP's from my dad (noob at skiing..) they are the 06/07 model.. They were cheap thats why he bought them.. I live in the Netherlands so there are not alot of cheap ski's around here..and selling things also isnt easy..

Now I already have a pair of Seth Vicious to cruise all mountain, some park and some powder.. So the MSP will add nothing..and they are stiffer.. Now I can do/try 3 things.. I can try to get the money back at the shop for the msp's.. Or I can trade them at the shop for some 190 EHP's.. I believe those are not rockerd? But I wont be skiing really big lines with them so I thought, maybe i can bent the tip and tails to get something like the LL2 from surface?? Will that work and how should I do that??

Or last option is still try to sell the MSP's and maybe also the K2 SV and buy something new?

Thoughts??

Ive tried rockering my own skis b4, and while they did become rockered, the shape didnt last. The MSPs are a stiff ski too, which will make it even less likly to work out well. I found that when I tried to rocker my moships and my arvs, I had much better results with the arvs b/c they were softer.

The rockering method really only works if the ski has metal in it. I am fairly sure the 190 EHP does not. Regardless, trading the MSP for the EHP is a good trade.
