    I'm guessing that Blurred might be the same source for this, but yea. All those arcs also make the ski look super turny.

    And they are about 115 underfoot, minimal sidecut. Actually a good shape.

    I just bought a set of 180's. Are they crap as compared to the PP's? I undrestood the cap portion, no delams on these yet although the edges are a bit thin for my taste.

    Any suggestions for mounting postion for my scrawny butt would be appreciated as well.

    the PP are right up with the explosive for all time durable. but the DP are OK for that, mount them on center I think.

    i'm pretty sure they're way lighter than the PP. I have a friend who skis axioms inbounds with reg DH binders and the "deep powder" in the backcountry with freerides. extremely light, snappy setup; not much in crud I'd imagine but as a serious pow ski you could lug for days, these might be the ticket.

    Killer fucking skis. I love them. Here they are in action with nx21's.





    The cap is starting to pull away from the edges underfoot, but I've definitely gotten my money out of them. I wish I could find this ski in a 190....that would be the ultimate.

    You should mount them to a cardboard box and send them to Colorado.

    Mount them on the line. They're perfect that waY.

    Also, it took me a while to figure out the Japmo Daap references...I'll never get that time back....
