Pure turning pleasure! For beginners and intermediates it is a very easy and positive first ski, reasonably wide at tip and under foot, you have a feeling of stability and ease of turn, Streetracer 7's by Salomon would be more fun for shorter turns and lighter skiers, the Rossi Open's or K2's Omni's are good beginner skis and finally the Dynastar X09 is probably the most fun of this category.
