Are there any differences between this years and last years? Cause if not I want the old ones cause they are sexified.

there're differences. rounded topsheet edges, new sidewall material, new sidewall construction (variable = 60 degrees at tip and tail, 90 degrees under boot - reinforces the strength of the edge under boot plus gives you more stability and control of the ski on landings), slightly stiffer with a bigger carbon fiber stringer, thicker edges, new bases... the chicks will dig you

i might do the same thing and get the T-halls, but i have heard some sketchy things about those, like they arent the best choice if your mixing in other skiing besides park, but i do like the idea of rounded edges beneath the boot for rails

Freestyler, if you like rounded edges you can probably purchase any ski and just round the edges yourself, just dont make rounded edges the determining factor in what ski you get.

no edges slide pretty good, like with my concepts. ptex/sidewall is like butter. core isnt too bad either :)

yeah dude ar5's ski well eeeeeeeverywhere, the t-pros are park specific so they have lots of flex and are most likely center-mounted so it'll be harder to take em' into powder etc..
