Does anyone ski Igneous FFF's with swallowtail, I'm thinking about getting a pair. If you do, can I have some feedback please? Thanks.

Yep.
 
unless ALL you do is backcountry and you never see less than at least 3-4 feet of fresh, why bother with such an unversatile ski? the guy i work with has a rossi bandit b2. 80mm waist, with a good powder flex. he can tear up the ice or the waist deep. In more than waist deep he'd want a fatter ski, but seriously, that 80mm waist takes him everywhere and anywhere... except the park, but hey, neither would a swallow tail. swallow tails are allergic to rails.

Get something like a Seth Pistol or Scratch BC. unless all you ever see if waist deep and more.

^^The ski for blasting through Squaw-frozen-avalanche-crap-death cookie show is the Volkl explosiv. They were made for that mountain. Just look at JT Holmes and most of the other locs killing nose-to-fingers every powder morning. You need something really stiff and stable, the explosiv fits that mold.

Jeff: Hey Geoff, did Ronny tell you not to wear any boxers so he could rape you better?

Geoff: No, I just put my boxers on backwards so the hole is in the back...it's alot easier that way.

'My knee hurts' (Jeff Merat after grinding a lunch table for an hour instead of sitting in the ski patrol shack for his torm mcl and acl which he got earlier that day.)

I have a pair of igneous fgs 185 that have a 250 stiffness. i only take them out when there is a ton of snow. they are really sick skis, but not very versatile. i use a 179 seth pistol most of the time, and those are a lot more managable. if you have other skis to use most days then get a pair of igneous to wreck with on deep days. they destroy whatever you want them to, and they are nearly indestructable. i love mine and will probably never get rid of them.

 
Rossi Bandit B2's have a 76mm waist, not 80.

They are a heaveee skis. I Have the FFL in a 200...best ski I've ever owned.

But, alas....don't be afraid. If you can get them DO IT. They are so freakin sweet and you won't regret it.
