Anyone here ride the k2 press as their all mountain ski? Can't find many reviews on them, but found them really cheap and was thinking about picking up a pair, for my girlfriend for her birthday. I realize they aren't "women's skis" but that doesn't matter. It's only her third year skiing, I believe so, she doesn't need anything top of the line, just wanted to get her something better than rentals. Thanks in advance

i own a pair and they are a park ski but are not a top of the line park ski. you could definitely use them as an all mtn ski. they are prone to edge cracks but i think that will only matter if you are going super hard on rails.

You wont get an edge crack from carving hard unless you hit a rock or maybe a really big piece of ice (doubt it). Park skiing crushes skis. Accept it before you do it
