Thoughts, Comments? Anybody trying to sell me these? How do they ride groomers, powder and park
 
They're pretty much just what every review says. They're great for groomers, can handle some pow, and really sick in the park!
 
Which is unbelievably sick. Enough so to let me convince my boss to bring them in to a 400 foot hill in SE indiana even though they are 100mm underfoot
 
haha, sorry, that was mildly sarcastic. i love the new blends, and the biggest mountain we have around us is a 500 foot hill two hours away (yes, i live in south jersey) and we too are bringing them in bc of the new design. its one of our three models of "powder skis" even tho ill still ride it as a park ski (as i did with my scratch bcs)
 
well I have last years blends (07-08) in size 186 center mounted with px12 jibs. These are my only ski, I ski them almost entirely in the park and they have been amazing for my size(6'2 220lbs). As a park ski they are awesome, solid, 90 mil underfoot provides awesome stability. They have held up pretty good on rails/rocks/logs I still have no edge cracks or coreshots. As for trees I skiied them in 20" of WNY freshy at holiday valley almost entirely in the trees and they were great, awesome maneuverability. Onto the big mountain aspect... I used these for 5 days in snowbird and every day there was around a foot or so of new snow. Having them centermounted, this hindered performance in the powder greatly. I was always diving and summersaulted multiple times. But when I got some speed and leaned back a bit I could float relatively well with some slope.... might help, I'm bored.
 
Yeah I rode on Brigades (same as BCs) this year and had a blast on them on my 400 ft hill. So 2 more mm isn't that big of a stretch for everyone else.
