yah man when you land on your tails its pretty big trouble, but if you rarely do that your in the clear. madtrix ive been riding the two models for two years and i think they are a pretty damn good ski.
TRY EVERYTHING EVEN IF IT MEANS KICKING YOUR OWN ASS
small in thickness or length, cause your only riding 170s and there probably centermount or close to it, get some 180s or bitchen long 185s (there east coast skis so 185 is bitchin long)
