honestly liked the 06/07 graphics better, not that i dont like these ones and im not a fan of the fact that they are produced at the elan factory now and not the option one, but nonetheless they are a really good ski to ride, the consistent flex makes them more solid and better feeling than the stls imo, i would have bought them if they came in a length longer than 175
if youre not really hard on your skis they will be amazing
