Anybody have any experience with these? I know they have a good amount of rocker so my question is are they still pretty stable on the hardpack/crud? do they chatter alot or feel noodley? I'm 5'7 and 145lbs just for reference.

They are a great all mountain ski, but it depends what the all mountain skiing you do is.

Somewhere here like whistler where we genrally dont get hardpack then there awsome. But on really icy days you will be better with a stiffer cambered ski.

But if you want a supper playfull, light weight ski that can handle carving in softer conditions, deep snow and some park, then go for them, you will love them.

at my height would you go 174 or 182. I consider myself to be a expert skier.
