i'll second that. i tout the blends a lot around here, i've gone through two sets and absolutely love them. I'm over 50 days on them, and they kill it, no hesitations to take them anywhere you want to take them. failing that, i'd lean to the cryptonite, stiffer flexing, 92 underfoot, very solid. i'm not a huge fan of taking the prophet in the park, cuz if you catch that guy weird you can torque the ski and it'll stay torqued.
