Strengths:
I ski since I was 8 now 35, made some pauses but all in all i have good ski experience. I switched to carving this year for the first time for i was a member of old school ski, with this magfire 8 i switch to carving without problems. Ski is good on wide or short turns. Just put a little pressure and it will be obedient. Solid on Ice excellent on compact snow or piste in not so good condition. Not a ski for off piste! You will enjoy this ski. I am recomending it strongly to intermediate or advanced skiers who stick to piste.

Weaknesses:
I rode this ski for 6 days and for that time its weaknesses if there are some, remained hidden, maybe it is not excellent for ice, nontheless it grips well. But please note this ski is for intermediate to advanced skier.

Summary:
This is a good ski not too expensive, excellent for a recreational to advanced skiers. Even not fit presons can handle this ski without loss to much energy.

Strengths:
An incredibly nice skiing to go on. Exact hardness, very consistent regardless of substrate. Went on ice and deep snow but it was very stable on all surfaces. Unbelievably easy to turn around whether you drove long as a grand slalom or short fast.

Weaknesses:
Sometimes felt quite heavy and you got to work with it properly, especially in deep snow, but after all it's easy to turn around.

Summary:
A very good skiing that you will really enjoy.

Riding style: Ski-Powder-Hump
