anyone ridden/demoed these.?

i ride 60/40 park /everywhere else and want a wide ski that can ride trees in the morning and park when its softer in the afternoon?

any other suggestions?
 
I haven't ridden them but they sure look dope. I just hope that their measurements are correct and it wouldn't be a Line 178 (170cm).
 
It's basically a full wood ski. Fairly durable and playful. Great for all mountain but i wouldn't recommend it for park. Graphics are nasty.
 
I demoed these last week in NZ. im 5'8" 145. they were sick skis. pretty stiff, but very flexy still, if you know what i mean. They will kill the park. good on jumps, very light for such a fat ski. real easy to throw around and real stable when going fast. they seemed like theyd break in good and get a little easier to butter after a while. surface live lifes 2 look similar to these
 
first actual review i've read on here about these skis. ++karma

them being light makes the likelihood of me getting them alot higher.
 
ive seen them on getboards.com and they had them in 178s. but getboards is pretty~~~ yaknow?

i think theyd be a good everything ski for park and monstertruckin all over the moutain
 
I am not a super hardcore park rider but so far my 183 blends have served me well. I love them for jumping the stomp shit so much harder than my old thrusters and they are not really noticeably heavier but I am a pretty big guy. I haven't gotten them on anything more than groomers being from the Midwest but they are pretty nice for laying down the carves I would recommend them. Hopefully getting them some pow next week in CO.
 
my brother is on a pair of 183's and he got to try them out for the first time yesterday. He was charging and making quick turns with ease. Said it was the most stable ski he has ever been on. I can't tell you anything about the playfulness of the ski yet though. I need to take them out for a day.
