im sick of ppl sayin the fujis are only good in pipe and park when they have never ridden em, i just got mine and rode em last weekend and even with the, center mounted they were the best groomer, cruising, hold an edge ski, that ive ever skiid. i had 1080s last year, the fujis are way better, ive ridden many all mountain-non park skis and the fujis are way better so if ur not gettin fujis bc u think they cant handle outside the park its bs, buy em u wont be dissapointed

lateralis what the mag is saying about a good all mountain ski is what all of the testers thought about them, which is alot of people who actually rode them as apposed to so many people hating on them when they have never ridden them, AND i guess it depends if your light or heavy

my blue 1260's are pretty soft, and are kinda scary on really steep stuff. So i got chronics this year, and am looking forward to a stiffer ski.

And you may think that the Fugitives are awesome for all-mountain, but either A: you've never ridden a true all-mountain ski, or B: you like them, but have to replace them every season because they wear out so fast.

Spend the extra $100 and get a ski that will hold up for more than a season.

They aren't the best for all mountain, obviously, that's not what they are made for. They do pretty well all mountain for a park specific ski.
They are fun to ski anywhere though. Just a little different. I think they're really fun to ski in powder. Not the most stable at high speed, but fun to play around on.

Im guessing real steeps would have powder and no one would used fujis for powder like that.

i had fujatives for 2 seasons that i could still use except i want something a little stiffer...they're the first skis i've had that have lasted for more than a season so don't assume just b/c they're cheap that they'll die after a season

wasn't assuming that they'd wear out just cuz they weren't as expensive as others. 3 of my friends were on them last year, and rode them all season. Then again, we go every weekend all winter, so they got abused, but they were all pretty much trashed by the time the snow melted.

Another of my friends has the Chronics and they're bomb proof. I suggest them, or PEs.

anyone know where the steepest INBOUNDS terrain in Colorado is?? I think it may be some of the hike to terrain over in prospect bowl at telluride, correct me if im wrong. So the true test will stand, I wll get a pair of fujatives, probably mount them forward as in Core center, and drop the chutes over in prospect, that will be the true all mtn test.

Mine are center mounted. I like it a lot.
They still ski just as well as when they are mounted back, just takes a little getting used to.
They still are fun in powder too, they are so soft the tips just bend up and stay on top of the snow.
They are shaky on ice though.
