I don't really know why i'm posting this, but I want to know if I got ripped off or not, it's too late now mind you. Anyways, I purchased 09 176 ar6's. They're in amazing condition, with no edge cracks, or any scratches. They came with a mounted peak 12, sadly not my boot size or centered, so I need to remount them. I bought them for $200, and would like to know what people think of this ski, if they have rode them.

Thanks guys, +k for responses.

It's a great ski. Almost identical geometry to this year's pipe cleaner. I've had ar6s and currently have PCs and love them. They're fairly stiff, but by no means on the level of something like the suspect or wall. I was surprised how light the swing weight is, definitely the lightest park ski I've ridden, although I'm comparing to anthems and pro pipes and my old hellbents. They hold a really good edge, but because of the asymmetrical shape, they carve kind of weird. If your skis are center mooted and you just roll them over, it doesn't feel like you're in the center of the sidecut, rather it feels like the ski is turning/rotating around a point just behind your boot, which is just unusual but by no means affects the ski's performance. For 200 dollars In good condition you got a good deal for sure. Granted I got mine brand new with peak 18s, but that's unusual. Be happy and shred them till they fall apart!
