04 pocket rockets

They are noodles. Buy them, sell them on ebay for more, and buy a ski that responds when you want it to.
 
^ they are a little soft ya.

but i love em.

what other ski thats 90mm underfoot can you shrew pow and butter on?
 
K, if you are buying 175 pr's then you clearly are going to use them for jibbing right?

175 for that ski is a bit short unless you are just having fun with them...

These skis a sick for charging in snow... And if that's why you are getting them then you should go a bit longer...

If it's jibbing... They are great... soft... no more then any fat ski. plust you jibbing so whatever...
 
moships flites, msps, arvs,older bc's, this years bc sprayers (slihglty skinnier than 90), and im sure there are about 3 or 4 more.
 
salomon makes great skis they just dont stay great for too long the foam breaks down and they get realllllllllly soft and flacid. no one likes flacid
 
I think they're awesome skis. I have the 185's, they're my second pair, and I have never had a single problem with them. They're great on the groomers, but I try not to use them for that, since their intended purpose is more fun. As far as ice goes, they're too soft for my preference and VERY unresponsive once the snow firms up.
 
The msps arent that stiff of a ski....excluding the 187s i guess which i havent ridden so i can't really have an opinion on. Definately butterable.

And yes, all those skis are more resposive than the pr too. That is without the deadest ski I have ridden in its price range.
 
they are soft, but definitly a sick ski. i rode them hard for a full season and had no problems with them other than the chatter at high speeds. they are a absolute dream in powder, they were sick. nice flex for pow. but when i was hittin stuff like day after storm stuff, it got interesting. steeps with some bumps were very interesting keeping the tip from not chattering. i was dissapointed with everyones bad marks on this ski on this sight. one person says they suck, and all the little 10 year old posers say they suck. depends how big you are. i was 5'8, 135lbs and rode the 185's and they performed well.

the length made up for the floppy-ness.
 
I have a great idea.....how about you can only respond if you've actually skied on them? And not just once on an icy, bumpy day, but regularly for at least a season so you actually have something to base your judgement on?
