Strengths:
Very Stable in manky snow.
Very damp, no chatter
Telemark - great flex
Carving and edge control (despite width)
Powder hogs
Both off-piste and groomers
1-Ski Quiver
Sturdy

Weaknesses:
Bit heavy for touring.

Summary:
- Favorite ski ever. Wish I could replace them, but nobody makes anything with same profile.
- Me: I ski 70% telemark, 30% AT. Mounted with binding inserts for both telemark (22 Design) and AT (Dynafit). I ski hard, but precise, I like turns and steeps, but not crazy aggressive.
- Great Flex for Telemark: No tip dive because tips are soft enough the be compliant. Of course early rise tip helps. Moderate camber allows whole ski to arc and carve. Stiffer is not always better.
- Shape: I love the straight side and long turn radius (31m!) which is very rare in today's skis. I'm old-school and prefer to actively flex and arc skis, and don't like modern deep sidecut and short radius (~21m). which is too active and twitchy for tele.
- Straight Tails: hold the turn firmly and don't wash out. Taper on the end allows good turn release and exit. Carve like champs when I must transit on the groomers. Great off-piste and as good on-piste as you could ask for a fat ski.
- Super Stable: The skis pushes confidently through chunder and mank without BS - Ski cut, mashed potatoes, death cookies, wind blown, rime crust... Our coastal mountains have have frequent schlock and garbage conditions, and these skis are the best I've ever had.
- Damp and no chatter on icy crap.
- Strong - I've ridden them hard 12 years and they won't give up. Gonna be sad when they're die.
- Touring - They're a bit heavy but not bad. Lighter skis have been disappointing downhill.

Strengths:
Lightweight, stable, good flow in loose nose and good edge grip when it gets harder. Sufficiently narrow to easily go with stumps. Adequately wide for flowering.

Weaknesses:
Hard piste

Summary:
These have been on my neck for several years, but I came across a pair of new ones that I bought when my budget was limited. Fitted a pair of King Pin on these. Traveled from hard to piste to off-piste. For me who like big turns in the sneeze they are good. Had them in Sunnmøre one week where we went up with stewards every day and thought they worked well. Relatively light and wide enough to make it easy to walk up and to have a good flow in the sneeze. Ice pistol does not work well, which may not be surprising. But in a softer piste it worked surprisingly well.

Riding style: Going piste, pillows and top trip. Both alpine and telemark
Length on the ski: 175 cm
Riders weight: 65 kg
Riders length: 165 cm
