I have an opportunity to get them for a great price, but I do not know a lot about the skis. Does anybody have any good opinions, or stories about these skis. +k for good responses

I have two friends that ride these skis.. One is a beginner for park and the other should basically be sponsored. Two different extremes, but they seem to work well with both of them. I know this probably doesn't help, but if they both think it's a pretty good ski, then i'm sure it is.

I had Elan park skis back in 2005 and they were the best park skis I ever owned. Very well built, durable, seriously underrated.

That said, I'm totally unconvinced about Triple Base tech on a park ski (or any rocker for that matter), so check if it's those or the old ones you're getting a deal on. Bataleon use TBT on all of their boards and I hate how they ride on firm snow. Once Elan puts TBT on some pow skis they will rule.
