On paper these skis sound amazing but can't find a pair to look at or flex around me in Utah. Anyone have any experience with them?

I could probably go in evo and check for you. Evo is like a mile from my house BUT that’s gotta wait until I’m back home in a week’s time

Considering picking up a pair for this year. Checked them out in person earlier and first impression is that they're fairly stiff and have a lot more camber than other skis in the mid-fat category. Still some nice early rise in the tip and tail (not really full-on rocker).

From the sounds of it, they're a little less surfy than Pollard skis of the past, but that sounds pretty appealing to me for a daily driver IMO.

Any thoughts on sizing? I'm stuck b/w the 183 and 189. Kinda want the added length for the longer turn radius, but the amount of camber has me second-guessing myself.

6' 170 lbs for reference.

Rode the Nexus last year and really wasn't stoked on them. They were way too soft for my liking and just didn't inspire confidence

I am 6' 3" and have the 189. I personally love them. For the way I ski, they are plenty supportive and still pretty damn playful. They do ski long, but not ridiculously so. If you have any specific questions let me know and I would be happy to give my perspective. I would 100% recommend as a daily driver.
