I had very high hopes for this ski. When I purchased the skis a year ago, I was told that they would be very comfortable and range from aggressive to intermediate. The first time I took them for a ride, I had alot of vibration. Over the year the vibration never stopped. On ice the skis vibrated so much that I actually had quad burn and leg fatigue. Also, the skis were slow on straight aways even after a tune up and waxing. On powder, slow as molasses.
