I have Volkl Bridges and am looking for new skis and wondering what I should get. I am wondering if Line Masterminds are any good. Reply and Karma

im pretty sure the masterminds are more of a begginer ski, but if your just starting in the park and your not +6foot they would be good

I was skeptical but that seems like a cool site.


BUT, give us your height/weight/skier ability and we can help you more

they will be a step down in quality from the bridges.
Bridges = Top of the line, Sidewall, fast base, stiff flex, great carver.
Mastermind = Pricepoint, Cap, Crappy base, fairly soft, def a mostly park ski even though they call it all mountain.

Oh okay but the only thing about the bridges I dont like is when i spin the skis rub together and it slices the skis graphics.

that happens to every ski, and the masterminds are not durable at all..
masterminds = bad idea. if you want durability got for ninthward, volkl, armada
