Overall
I'd say that if you are a big guy looking for a playful but not noodle-y park ski at a great price, look no further.
PS, as of writing this, the 184cm length is still available on evo's outlet for $220! I'm half considering buying a second pair at that price to have when these ones are done.
Performance
Great performance. They have really improved my park riding, and they perform great on groomers. I can carve them so hard I touch the ground. I rode them 1 day in powder (heavy heavy powder) and they did alright but you can tell that it's not what the ski was designed for.
Design
I love the design of these skis. The top sheet shows the wood construction of the ski with graphics laid over it and I think it looks sick. One thing that I think would make it better is if the graphics on each ski were different (they're the same). Also it would be cool if they took advantage of the fact that this ski is 100% symmetrical and made the graphics more similar front to back.
Value
I got these on EVO's outlet store for $240 including shipping. Pretty tough to beat that.
Fit
I got the 184 size which is perfect for me when center mounted (these skis are symmetrical, so you should mount them center for best performance).
Characteristics
AMAZING. I'm a bigger guy (6'1" 185lb) and for me the flex on these skis is perfect. Stiff enough to be nice and stable at a good speed and on landings but still perfect for buttering. They flex nice and evenly as well due to the skate deck construction. They have a nice pop and I can ollie and nollie higher than any other ski I've ever ridden (in fact I could hardly nollie at all before I got these skis, now it's no problem).
Durability
I've only skied them from dec-feb so far but they are holding up well. I put a few nicks in the base the first day I used them because this season has been so bad so far and there were rocks embedded into the snow, but nothing went through the base. Other than that they have held up quite well with hardly any topsheet chips and the ones that are there are very small.
