Nice...you'll like those. Although I don't recommend landing fakie on them, the R:EX skis fakie quite well...

I drove home with $50 in my account after buying those so I'm extra particularly super duper proud of 'em :)

I used to ski fakie on a pair of Elan RC staright skis in a 195. :cool:

Of course, back then we called it skiing backwards. Then again, I remember watching ski ballet competitions too.

I demoed shorter Public Enemies last weekend at Killington (short ones because, well...I'm short!). I enjoyed these so much, I really didn't want to give them back. I purposely found boilerplate to ski on to see what it would feel like and it was fine. Best part was powering through soft mush and crud like butter. And they are quite stable at fast speeds IMO


These are bouncy and fun skis. Wish I had some!
