these are kinda hard to tell the scale, but check out the long shovels:

and the 'reverse camber' tail...more just like a long, low rise:

That EHP193 is definitely appealing. Liked your review/write-up...had me drooling to get a pair under my feet.
I like the idea of the rockered tail more than a twin tip.
This is going to sound kind of gay, but I'd love the EHP in a 183. The mountains I ski aren't big enough, nor am I man enough, to run the 193. Other than that, they sound amazing.
anyone have contact wtih 4frt to try to do a group buy on EHP?
Get the 182 VCT then....Quote:

Damn. Looks like it could be an incredible ski. I'll continue drooling on my keyboard now.
But we arent talking about the 190 EHP, we are talking about the 193 EHP which is a totally different ski. You are correct that the 190 EHP is the same as the VCT, but that is NOT the ski we are talking about. The 193 EHP is 130-112-118 and a totally different ski. That is why I am saying the VCT is not even close. Does it make sense now :nonono2:Quote:

Possible group buyer here too, price dependent.....
Noooo! I'm super interested in trying the 193 EHPs ... but I must resist the temptation of some sort of group deal.
Argh!
if my brother gets them, i'll trade you time on those for time on the 138s and 120s...
Wait...he gives up someting and you get something? Shouldn't *he* be the one to get time on the 138s/120s??? :DQuote:

bump cause im no longer poor and want these skis
any one know anything about how bombproof these skis are or are supposed to be, i want them but am questionable about 4frnts construction
Well if you live on the east coast, it won't matter because you'll never be able to ski these.Quote:

i think mc_roon wins for amassing the most gear while crying poverty!
(ah...now i know why he's always poor.)
(some stuff you "might" have enjoyed in the yay area prolly costs a bit more than it does where you are now.)
