This will be contrary to everything you have heard, or will ever hear from ns'ers -- the salomon pocket rocket/gun/gun lab are very "noodly" -- wich is true to a certain extent. If you are used to a sandwich construction wood core ski, then yes it may see a bit softer than that. BUT I skied on my pocket rockets for 4 years and the only ski that I have enjoyed as much since, and thought it to be AS VERSITILE, is the seth vicious. This is my opinion, so to each his own.
I say go for it -- you will not be dissapointed. Besides, that ski is a lab ski and there were only like 100 brought into the US.
