Thinking about buying some 1260s(the red ones). How are these skis? Are they more of a park ski or all mountain ski? I'm thinking about buying a pair for cheap, just want to know what they are like. I ski like 70% park, 30% all mountain.Do you think these are alright for me? Thanks. + Karma for help

It was originally a mogul ski becasue it is so skinny.  I had the red ninja ones as my first twin tip, I loved them.  Don't expect to float in powder at all though.  They are pretty much all park and nothing else skis.

Are they a good park ski? Are they durable?

I heard they were good, just for park though. I'm not too sure about durability

I have Chronics, i think they are from the same year, they are incredibly durable they are still in excellent condition after about 4 years of use. Line was high quality shit before they moved manufacturing out to china.

yeah my buddy just picked these up new for $150, super skinny so I'd only use them for park/ light all mountain. for the time I think the graphics look good and would be a good budget park ski if you're just trying to get out there.
