Strengths:
Perhaps nice for lightweight guys.
Weaknesses:
NOT good for highspeed - flex is soft from tip to tail. If you get too fast, you feel and look like a flying dog.
Indestructable ? - I destroyed mine twice. On is clinched at the tip and on the other one the cap sidewall opened after
hitting a tree.
I also saw some some loosing their topsheet.
Summary:
My opinion:
Only a little taller Pocket Rocket or perhaps madenAK.
If you wanna play around in the woods, practise powder8 or just have a relaxed day: Nice toy
Riding style: Powder-fast
Length on the ski: 198 cm
Riders weight: 98 kg
Riders length: 198 cm
