Summary:
The Gravity Power is an exceptionally 'easy' ski. It is very forgiving, has decent edge hold, and turns effortlessly and smoothly. There is almost no energy or rebound at all from the ski - making it ideal for skiers who want to minimize muscle exertion. Because of this, I feel it is a great ski for older skiers, or casual skiers who do not want to tire themselves out early in the day.

Summary:
Bought it used with salomon S810's and was on the slopes in less than 30 minutes. What a great ride. Stability, stability, stability. I only had to think about turning and I was there. If I got to far back or forward it let me correct. I went as fast as I have ever gone on any ski and it just loved it. I went from being an advanced intermediate to very advanced in three runs and it only got better after that. I had alot of fun today. Just an absolutely great all around ski.

Summary:
This is a extremely heavy ski compared to other skis such that by the end of the day you are worn outtotally. It also has very poor turning characteristics particulairly on short turns, it usually will just start sliding. Of course the weight really deaden all sensations of the slope, but it doesn't help keep the legs fresh!
