Ok so I haven't skied these, I just saw them at the shop today. The pictures don't do them justice, they are a beautiful ski. The bases are see-through to a wood interior and the topsheet is glittery and beautiful. I don't actually know how they'll ski, reviews are mixed (most common negative complaint is that they are just too much ski for some people, so thats not really a bad thing) but they are pretty dang cute.
