They divide opinion but what they do in every case is attract attention.
Most people I ski with have been pretty stoked on them too.
The ski shape and profile is something out of the ordinary too.
The taper is also extreme for a ski only 102mm underfoot.
The flex is average to solid underfoot and fairly soft in the tip and tail.

As I said earlier they are pretty much the textbook playful ski design.
The soft tip and tail combined with more than generous rocker makes them super buttery.
Literally anyone could butter them.
But the camber provides some energy to pop back out of butters, and plenty of pop off lips/takeoffs.
They are wide/stable on rails, making them easy for surface swaps, 50-50s and presses.
They ski well switch and never hook up on takeoffs thanks to that rocker/ taper too.
As youd expect with the shape/profile they are also more than happy to slash turns and pivot.
In short, they are extremely easy to ski for all manner of jibbing.
If youre looking to learn to ski playfully, these are pretty much perfect.
Mandatory rail shot
But for me there are a couple of shortcomings.
Firstly, I find the nose and tail are too soft.
With that much rocker, you simply dont need so much flex to play around or to float.
That really is nitpicking/personal preference detail but it made a difference to my own skiing.
However, the durability I experienced during my 12 days skiing these was really exceptional.
I have no edge cracks despite skiing rails all day for 12 days.
I learnt this nosebutter cork 3 thing on these off a cat track, fun times!
They feel quite similar to ski and they are similar fun to ski day to day.
They would also work well for someone looking for a soft fat park ski.
