I want to know everyone thinks about these skis...? I know that the Sir Francis Bacons are not available yet, and only a few people have demoed them, but have been told by some guys at line that they are going to be similar to the Elizabeths just longer and a bit fatter to keep their elliptical sidecut thing going for them. I have rode the AKs and loved them for park and everything else... but haven't got the chance to try out the Elizabeths or SFB and would love to hear if anyone has and what they thought of them especially if you have tried out the AKs too. Please help... any info provided would be awesome.
 
If I had a choice, I'd got with the k2's for park and powder. They're much thinner, Bacons are way overkill for the park.
 
The bacon is on the back burner wiht line, there will be very few pairs out next year im told. Out of my three choices next year im gonna go with the ski in the middle of the liza and bacon, the maiden ak 179 im so excited to get them.
 
the elizabeth are the same as last year but bigger shovel...the bacons are more for park rather than BC freestyle...I agree if line does fuck up the bacons they will lose sooooooo much respect and money over the fuckin deal cause the chronics are ugly but have nice specs. The anthems are sick but arent really that much different than the invaders and the invaders are the same but skinnier and less de-lam prone, and no motherships. fuck that this will be a fun year to watch who blows up and such
 
wait.. was that uk line site wrong then.. cuz it said that the waist for the sfb was 115 and the lizzie was 130
 
I've never been lucky enough to ride any of them. However I've only heard great things about both skis that have been out before. As for the SFB I'm guessing it will be good cause it's really just an elizabeth but bigger
 
the elizabeths are pretty much worthless, in my opinion. too soft and too short. i have no idea what the sfb is all about, so i won't say anything about those. i have a pair of 179 made'ns that absolutely run shit everywhere. killer for park, absolutely insane for pow. my only gripe with the k2 is that it's a bit soft. if you don't mind softer skis, you'll love the made'n.
