Just asking for some reviews on how the Double Times preform on rails, i used the searchbar and a lot came up saying its great on jumps but there was not much abot its performance on rails. So help me out NS cuz there is a pair for only 200 and i am not sure if i should buy it or not.

Well cause its surface, the edges will probally crack put not like super crazy, there going to be light, and cause there $200, just go for them cause there awesome skis. Unless your some tital rail destroyer, youll be fine.

well i mostly hit rails and do kfeds and shit and im wondering since the skis are so fat if it will still be easy to do switchups and kfeds and stuff. Well i rode the s4's this year and i have huge pieces of edge gone, also will it be hard to transition from rossi s4's to the Double Times?

I don't think you'll have a hard time switching to these at all. They are fatter but still light. I personally like skinny skis way more for rails, I find them faster, lighter, and quiker on rails, I feel way better on skinnier skis in the park then fatter ones, but this is all personal preference. As for durability, you sound like your good and you destroyed the s4s, so any skis are probally not gonna hold up forever under you :) sure there will be other more durable skis, but these are $200 bucks and good skis, but others will be double the cost! Also, I have a feeling you might want to check out the joystick these! You might like em

Im interested too in these skis... Anyone on this forum has good vibes?

I like buttering a lot with my skis... are they maybe too stiff?
