I rode a pair of vaporizers at hood for session 2 all week. The transition from my thalls to the vapes was difficult for the first day or two, but once i got the hang of it i really enjoyed them. There are other park skis in the same price range that are arguably better, but what separates these skis is their warantee. I, personally didnt run into any problems using them, but the packaging in the shipping box really shows the care Epic Planks puts into their products, even off the snow. If you like them, get them. its as simple as that. 9/10 for me..
