so far i really like mine. The bases don't seem as tough as the ones on my Line Elizabeths were but they are holding up ok. I'm not sure if I find them too narrow on rails, I think I might prefer slightly wider but aside from that I like them all over the mountain!
 if you've tried them and loved them, isn't that all you need to know?

I have used mine roughly 25 times this season and i love them. They tear up park and are a super fun ski. if your hill has any fresh snow at all the elf shoe technology rips down the mountain. groomers are eh. Ive noticed my tails washing out every turn. but mine are setup centered as park skis so I cant complain.

i have a pair that i've ridden around 30 times so far. they kill park, so if thats what you're looking for, get at it. put you need to know that they aren't really an all mountain ski, and just can't compare to some skis for all mountain riding. if these are going to be your only ski, i would get something different, but if you are just looking to add a park ski to your quiver, go for it and don't look back.
