The absorbsion and suspension aspect is one I did not figure - interesting
When you say that you can carve them, I know it isn't the same sensation as the Kastle, so how would you discribe that as far as fun factor for a groomer.  Just as fun but different, or close but still a blast....you get my drift.  The reason I am interested is I would buy these as my out west ski and with Gloria (who we need to convince to demo something like this) I end up spending 50 - 75% of my time on the groomers, so I need something fun enough to make it worth the $$.

And now that I am a quasi bump skier, same Q for the bumps.  My guess is that if they can be pivoted, it may help in some respects for the bumps as long as they don't wash out.

Ron,
From what you and Gary are saying, I am guessing that a ski with tip rise/rocker with a traditional tail would loose some of the greatest benefit that these skis have for trees, powder and other off piste skiing. true?
