    Don't know about the Akira's but I have the Kreitler's mounted with the dukes and they are awesome. Not hard at all to ski, nice meduim flex (softer than my LP XXL's). Blizzards new stuff is very solid.

    Hey, I'm supposed to work... not surf the web...

    As for Akira... Nice a tad soft round flex. Highly similar to the old black Goats...

    Akira= Slightly soft BC (before china) Gotama. Next year it will be replaced by The Answer, same dimensions with 2 sheets of titanal!!! Too bad their ditching the new toepiece and going back to the standard marker toes. Have to run Dukes or Markers...
    If things seem in control, Your just not going fast enough.
