if all you do is park...then i feel bad for you...but get a park ski. if u like to ski everything, and still be able to do park...buy the pe's. i have em...theyre sick. i beat the living shit out of them, and they're still goin.

ive ridden both, and they are both awsome skis.

they are both very light, but the 1260s are noticibly lighter. as long as you get the 1269 in the right lenght, (head hight) its awsome. any smaller and it becomes harder to land, because of the huge nose and tail on these things. also, the 1260s are absolutly amazing on rails, and if you dont really care for them now, these things will have you hittin up all the time. they just lock on amazingly.






Lets go skiing

twintiprider..idiot? just because pe's are wider and better in the BC doesnt make them any less of a pary ski as the 1260...the width helps on lands..good for riding switch and the extra thick edges are great for rails...not to many the ski as a whole is awesome in the park

The 1260's are also not too bad in the pow, or the BC. However, the P.E.'s are just a little better according to my understanding, so my recommendation. If you are like 60% park and 40% BC, go with the 1260's, and if you are like 60% BC, and 40% park go with the P.E.'s. I have only ridden the 1260's, but I know many who ride the P.E.s and it seems like you are just looking at two great skis, one with just a little bit more specialization in one of the two areas most of us seem to be concerned with. So either way, probably gonna like either one, but just take that into account.

My buddy was on his fifth pair of 1260s in a year and a half, they are weak, the bindings ripped out 3 times and the tips delammed 2 times. Line has since told him that he won't be able to warranty them because there is a little peice of duct tape on the top of the toe piece of the binding, and the heel piece is what keeps coming out anyway. Line is gay, all of line.

PEs are more stable on landings. i ride the 179s in the park and, while the swing weight may be more, they're a lot more solid on switch landings than the 1260.

twintiprider the pe is an all mt ski that works good in everything. its not just good at bc. i would prefer the pes over thet 1260 now that i have skied both because its much stiffer and way more stable. but the 1260 is very good as well. light and a lotta pop. if your in the park 80 percent of the time i would go with the 12s but if any less then the pe

the 1260s will get you to the park ok. they arent a good all mountain ski they are just for park. to soft for high speeds. i tried using them in the pow too but the are to skinny. pe's are a all mt ski that kicks ass in the park.

line must've stiffened up the 12's this past season cuz i have the new ones and they feel a lot more stable and when you flex 'em they're quite a bit stiffer than last year.



my level of radness... it just can't... be quantified.
