Yeah, i do. The watered down S7 jr. in size 155. There is no rocker, not even early rise. Its a really good ski for park though. Steady on jumps good flex and nice on rails, just tip dive in powder though.

S1 was a kids ski, with an adult topsheet, don't fool yourself.

The exact same ski was a junior ski the year before. They put a different graphic on it and labeled it an adult ski.
