milotv34Ive skied 90ish days on mine this season, and they might be my favorite ski. They are a little stiff for butters but they break in super nicely. They carve really well even when the edges are pretty fucked, (which mine are). On rails, they are super light and I can spin them plenty, and the slight rocker helps my tips and tails not hit the ground when I pretzel on low rails. They are also stiff enough for me to go big on jumps and land good and shit. Durability is pretty good, but not the best. I do have to give them a huge amount of credit because 90 days of park and they still are skiable, but within the last week or two of skiing the edges started to come out a little and the side walls were opening up underfoot exposing the base. That being said, They lasted me the entire season and I ski rails all the time. The topsheet gets chipped a little bit, but not a crazy amount, and i did get a noticable chip on the tip of my ski that started to peel up, but it didnt get any worse even though i did nothing about it. Overall, i loved skiing these and I'm considering buying another pair for next season.
i.love.jibbsAnd in terms of butters, can you nose / tail press pretty easily after they break in?
milotv34im tallish and pretty skinny and I kinda suck at butters but yea i could butter them fine. I dont like doing a lot of tailpresses though because i dont like putting all my weight on my tibia like that. Its doable though they arent thaat stiff, plus they are really poppy when u do butter them
RiplineThey are great:)
I had the yellow ones from last gen.
If i were you I would get the newest generation tho.
More modern.
I sold mine and got the mfree 99 instead.
