        Overall

        I loved them. The skis are great. They have an awesome overall performance and perform amazingly in park. I would definitly reccomend this product to anyone interested.

        Performance

        While in the park the thrusters performed very well. I found it very easy to spin and rails were easy to keep balanced on. While in groomed areas the ski still performed very well, they were easy to keep control of and turns were smooth and effortless.

        Design

        The look was incredible. I think the design is really unique and awesome and the overall shape of the ski was great. The feel of the ski was also nice but they are a little on the heavy side, makes no difference unless your constantly flexing your skis.

        Value

        These things were a steal. I got them very cheap with bindings and I love them. I get great control, good speed, smooth turns, nice balance and effortless spins.

        Fit

        I really liked the fit but I feel I could've gotten the next size up. I am currently riding the 161's and I am 5'8". The shorter skis really hep me stay in control but for park purposes I may upgrade to the 171's next season.

        Characteristics

        The Flex on the skis are not suitable for those who like to butter, hand drag or tip stand. There is some flex but not as much as you would get in many other skis. The Thrusters are made with a thick wood core which contributes to the flex factor.

        Durability

        I have skied on boxes, rails, jumps and dirt with these and so far my topsheet is almost scratchless and my edges are perfect. My base is really awesome to, no core shots and they held up really well against everything i've been doing this season.

        Overall

        This ski is a amazing park ski and works preety well through the powder not the best. I like this ski very much. One of the best park skis out there and also looks good in photos and videos. Very steezy ski! dopest graphic ever

        Performance

        This ski is great nice on rails and off jumps. Its preety much an all park ski so if your into park this ski is for you. Otherwise it works very well if you get it you will be very pleased with what you got and paid for.

        Design

        The grahpic on top is so dope. Its probaly the best graphic out there period no question about it. I always get props on it. They feel of it is great to. You can really control the ski and it has a nice sidecut.

        Value

        It was very good for the price i got it at. It will definatly last you awhile since it will be very difficult to destroy this ski. Its a park ski they have to make it tough and survive through falls and rails. It would work very well for urban. This ski could be a little lower priced but still its a decent price you could say.

        Fit

        this fit was good for me. I have 151 and there is 161 and something else i think. They could have made a couple other sizes so more people could get them. The sizes are ok i guess.

        Characteristics

        There is a preety decent flex on this not super stiff but also not to flmsy. I could i have like a little more flex but its still a good ski.

        Durability

        The bottom of the ski holds up very very well no damage to it at all. The top however can get thrashed preety easily, but that doesnt effect any of your skiing at all. You will probaly get chips on the top little scrathes not to much just dont rub the skis together a bunch.
