i had the year befores model with the random trippy drawings
as for performance the ski was dope, it was right between soft and stiff, it was light and overall a super fun ski
the down side was durabilty aside from cosmetic top sheet chipping, i had a few core shots not to bad but bad enough, also had some bad edge cracks where they bent in ward
worst of all the ski was starting to seperate on the on the underfoot like, the top and the bottom were coming apart
if your not looking for a ski to last you for ever its awesome
