These were the first twin tips I ever rode...and they were by far the worst skis I have ever been on. While it was in 2005, simply turning and getting on edge was near impossible. I thought they shut down, and seeing as on their online store they are still selling 2006 and 2007 models, maybe there are still trying to get rid of old stock. As far as I know they arn't available in shops here in Australia, and doubt they still make skis, which is a good thing, they really suck
