If you flex to release you do not need the upturned tali. I can live with twin tips but this is why I hate tail rocker. The tails will wash out and come around with any pressure on the ski. They just want to pivot whether you want them to or not. And you can bring the skis around when your weight is back , which just will not happen with a flat/hard tail. I guess it is not surprising that the public loves rocker and tail rocker. If you are focused on just getting them turned when you want and need to (and not on how you accomplish this) they definitely get them turned and sideways faster and from positions (riding the tails) that would never work on traditional skis.

I think it is exactly 4 weeks from today that I will be demoing the Chariots!!
