Alright so for my setup next year I'm thinking rossignol fks's and moment vices. Ik I'm going with the fks but I'm debating the moments anyone know their durability or have a general opinion about them. I ski about 45 percent jumps and 55 percent rails. Currently I'm riding on3p filthy riches and marker griffons

I have literally exactly the same setup as you described. Love the skis such low swing weight and I have had no durability issues so far (been on em since midway through last season till this season. Probably about 70 days or so total on them). They also have extraordinary grip but also dont hang up on rails like most camber skis I have used due to the rocker. I would highly recommend them man.

How are they on jumps my current set up is kinds heavy and they don't have much pop. Had some k2 domains before them and they didn't have much camber either. I still love em there a great ski. How stiff are the vices? And also how tall are you and what size do you have. I'm about 5'10 and got my fr's in a 176 and they seem a bit on the long side but not terrible I got them longer because of the rocker but I just kinda guessed.

Im 5ft 6in and i have 162cm length. They have some pretty insane grip on landings for jumps even sheer ice (I ski in MN so I know all about skiing on ice haha) They pop pretty nicely, I have no trouble hitting jumps up to 60 or so feet. They are interesting since they are mustache rocker so some camber in the middle then a bunch of rocker on the tip and tail. I also had Domains before I got the vice and they are a massive improvement. As for durability I have had a couple crashes where the tip went strait into the supports for a rail and hung up so hard one came off and there have been no issues with cracking, delaminating, or edges coming out. Honestly I cant say enough good stuff about em, they are killer skis. If I broke them somehow I would probably just buy another pair, thats how much I like em. Also its kinda fun how unique they are, Ive only ever seen one other person with them
