Has anyone tried these skis out yet?
Thinking of buying some and wondered how they shape up against opposition.
All opinions gratefully read!

IMHO the Volkl SixStar redefines the class of skis the FiveStar defined last
season. This is the class Salomon and Atomic have tried to build with the
Crossmax and Supercross lines respectively. The SixStar has great edge grip,
is very energetic, handles crud well, is good in short, long and medium
radius turns and has a firm, solid powerul yet light feel. It's good for
locations where the conditions are firm to hard and goes acceptably in deep
snow when you need it to.

Why don't they make one without all the crap on top so I can mount a tele
binding properly. What a shame!
