I'd take a look at the Blister review of them, there's a first review, and a kind of second look review. Take a look here -http://blistergearreview.com/gear-reviews/2011-2012-rossignol-scimitar-185cm, and here -http://blistergearreview.com/gear-reviews/update-rossignol-scimitar

I have two days on the 174's (im 5'8", 145) in the park. These skis kill it on rails, very fun, spin nicely, the width is awesome to swap around with confidence. They handle jumps well, but you have to land fairly spot on to not wash out, but stable enough because of the width.

 

[TheDetectives]

how often do they wash out on you? is it fairly controllable?

 

[DBL]

Wash out only when going deep switch, fairly controllable, I've only had the last two days o em, so i don't know how they'll react on hard pack, maybe im not used to the 0 camber yet

super fun skis all over the mountain and in the park but the durability sucks, after about 40-50 days (a LOT of rails) i pulled out like half a foot of edge on both skis and they were basically unskiable

Seems to be the case with rossignol skis. I know others who had problems with the edges aswell as myself. I have less than 40 days on my storms and the edges are fucked from rails.

The durability on Rossis is fantastic, they just use edges that are thin as fuck. My S3's are missing alot of edge after ~55 days
