Have had the Neo's in 176 for 2 years, before that skied on B2's. Have about 5 weeks on them in all snow conditions on and off piste. I absolutly love them miles better than the B2. Pretty short radius about 14.5m I think with 83mm underfoot. They are a pretty mellow ski easy to edge and turn but still stable at high speed, have had them upto 112kms and they still felt stable. They land off a jump with no issues and as a semi twin you can ski and land faky fairly easily. Pretty good in powder, on bottemless days you are going to struggle (but how many of those do you ski a year)? upto a couple of foot of fresh no issues.
The graphics are it has to be said awful, apart that from if your looking for one ski to do most thinks then you won't go far wrong with the Neo.

I found the Lords quite noodly, something and nothing, neither a great ski on or off piste. The Neos were better, but I preferred the Aztecs, Missions and currently have the Crusades, but these 3 are probably more off-piste orientated than you are looking for

CW041087, i skied both Lords and Neo's (amoungst others) for a day each and eventually bought the Lords in a 185. I really liked the Neos and almost bought them before being persuaded to test the Lords. I felt the Lord was a bit stiffer, a bit more stable at speed and generally just suited my skiing more. The Neo had a bit more grip on the hard pistes but if you keep on top of the Lord they're great in terms of edge grip. I feel the Lord gets better and better the faster and harder you go, whereas the Neo was the opposite. Both great skis though, but i'd try to get on them before buying anything...
