Overall
while fun, there is much to be desired with this ski. it falls short in the durability category, and 4Frnt needs to catch up with its competitors and use a beefier edge.
Performance
these do perform well when they are in the original state, the original flex provides good pop while keeping stability for landing large jumps. as they got softer, stability was lost.
Design
i liked the sidecut, and the positioning toward center. the core gets soft very quick and they do not have the thicker edges that some competing companies use.
Value
i'd say these performed below the listed price. durability issues really hurt this ski.
Fit
4frnt has a good size range and progressive sidecut throughout the widths, which is nice, giving different sized people the same performance.
Characteristics
The flex has changed so much in the month i've had these skis. When i first got these skis, they had a medium flex with softer tips and tail. After only a month of riding, the flex has degrade extremely, making them very soft all over and far less stable.
Durability
These have not held up at all, the edge has pulled away from the base, the flex has changed drastically. that being said, i am much harder on skis than the average skier, and some of this may not happen with a smaller person. also the edges are thinner than others like line and armada, i had edge cracks by the end of the second day of use.
Overall
good if u like stiff park only skis not that playfull lot of pop
Performance
