This is a fantastic all mountain ski. Once I tried a pair the first time, I had to buy them. They are extremely light and very easy to turn. They're also really, really soft laterally and torsionally, so they melt into very round turns really well. Oddly enough, despite the softness there is an excellent amount of rebound out of the turn, and also an excellent amount of stability if you stay centered on them. I found that they work very well in short turns, but they also are great in long ones (just stay centered!). The one drawback as far as I can see is that they don't grip boilerplate ice like some other skis, but they make up for that in their ability to do everything else well.
