Black crows anima on hard snow?

Has anyone any experience with the black crows anima on icy or hard snow or groomers. Because I want to ski the anima the whole day, when I'm not doing a backcountry day, also in the afternoon on ice or in the morning on groomers.

Fun ski! demoed a pair on a bulletproof ice day... they weren't anything special for the type of skis they are... the demos had a good tune, and the place was empty so I had space to go fast and lay them over. Not too chattery though, that was nice. Every Blackcrows ski I've ridden always feels powerful, but a little playful.
The Moment Deathwish is the best one ski quiver I've ever ridden/owned - the triple camber really does make the ski bite on hardpack. - worth a look for what you're trying to do.

Mine were good on hardpack, but like the guy above i was not taken by them.
They feel too harsh for me, i prefer a ski which is damper, it does not have to be soft but I dont ;like harsh skis and the anima is harsh. Its a good ski but not the best.
