Overall
Of all my equipment, I am only giving a 10 to two things - the prophet 100s and my Sessions Softshell Hoody (which kicks ass, by the way). I would buy these skis again and again.
Performance
There is nothing this ski can't do. It is extremely powerful and will bomb through Mt. Hood death cookies. It will also float nicely in pow, turn quickly in trees and has no speed limit as far as I can tell. I spent three days at Silverton this spring on extremely sketchy conditions - crust, dust on crust, ice and slush - scary shit - and the prophet 100 ate it up and begged for more.
Design
The asymetrical graphics are sweet and the earth tones hide mud pretty well.
Value
I bought them from Evogear in the Summer 06 for $399. I would say it was a smoking good deal - especially considering the ski itself (apart from graphics) has been unchanged for three years and was a Freeskier editors pick last winter.
Characteristics
Stiff but responsive - solid wood core with titanium sheets in the lamination.
Durability
Edges and bases are bomber - I billygoated rocks at Silverton with almost no damage at all. Top sheet seems to be holding up better than other Lines.
