My son (who is 24 and been on twintips for 8 years) has a pair of this year's model. He loves them in the park & for screwing around on the hill but not as an all-mountain ski. Their big knock is they are too soft for high speed skiing or landing big jumps. For an intermediate they should be just fine.

Different sort of ski. PE is a wider ski with more of a sidecut so it can be used in the park/piste/powder effectively. The Fujative has alot less sidecut and is narrower with a different flex pattern.

One of the best value skis on the market, also read VOLKL Dogma.

SMALLZOOKEEPER, good value, but a good ski?
Just wondering, because they are being sold off very cheaply in the sales right now.

I tested the Fugitive and Dogma at the same time I tested the Karma. Went for the Karma as I wanted a stiff twin tip. The Dogma and Fugitive felt like the same ski. I thought they were far too soft for a fatie like me and would not recomend them for anyone over 80kgs (or there abouts).
I have heard lighter people rave about them.

Edmundh009, new with bindings?
|
|

You know it makes sense.
|
Think Fugative's on sale all over Europe (don't know for N.A.) to unload them prior to new Inserts park ski.

Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:

Wtfh Yeah new with bindings, I lost out for some from a shop in dundee at around that price and got atomic triplets instead. Item number: 8785582210 . Bought from them before. Phone and see if you can specify bindings, they gave me axium 100s with mine which wasnt what I was expecting. I think the PE would be much harder work than a fujative. I have demoed a pair and found them pretty heavy. However I am only 150lbs.

The Power bindings were from previous years using the original turntable heels. Many people (including myself) think they were the best binding ever made. They are less prone to premature releases than any binding out there.
