Yo so I was on 4FRNT's site and saw the Switchblade as a park ski. I don't know anything about it other than it replaced the TNK which I heard was really good. Anyone have any knowledge/experience with these new skis?

Theyre excellent. i have them and they are soo nice, very low spin weight, semi capped construction=no chipping, very stable, overall perfect park ski. Get em

They're sick. I love them. They feel great with anything you're trying to do. I would definitely recommend them

hate to bump, but does anyone know how buttery they are? i'm thinking about grabbing a pair maybe next year because my revivals this year are way too small for me (6'0, riding 164s)

This I was kinda wondering the same thing because David Wise rode the new ones in superpipe so would that mean they're reallyreally stiff?

No wonder I have you rated so low. Why don't you explain your reasoning?
