    Nice, I wouldn't have expected to like those (from the website graphics), but I do!

    8.9 sounds about right. My 182, flex #4, enduro/carbon/veneers come in at 8.6 on my scale.

    Damn. Shu, those are pretty as fuck. Here’s my skinny Qs. Pics don’t really do them justice. Need to get them on the scale. They’re lighter than I was expecting.

    Which clamps are destined for these?
    Chicken yeah its ambrosia, when you get up close to them and look at the denser parts of the graphics the ambrosia blemishes are super subtle but super sick. For clamps I've really enjoyed the STH13s I have on my Protests,
    and they happen to come in orange this year which could look pretty good. I'm totally open to suggestions, I'm not too picky, I have Jesters, FKS, STH, and actually like them all.

    Somin murdered out, keep it subtle so as not to take away from the sickness. Hell even last year look white outs probably be pretty smooth

    Dayumm Shu Shu those are beautiful. One of the best topsheets I have ever seen.

    Here are my Skinny Qs



    Heavy Core, #4. The elemental topsheet is a little more magenta/maroon than I was expecting, but I absolutely love the color.

    The flex is perfect, just slightly softer than my #5 Rx. The weight is actually pretty light in hand, but not too light, they feel very good.

    The finish, as usual, is just exceptional. Phenomenal even. Its down right unbelievable that we can get such nice skis for the spring sale prices.

    Either Kiwi or White would compliment them nicely.

    Im going to try and put a lot of time on my skinny Qs and Rx this year. More than my other skis. I will be posting some long reviews, hopefully by mid December. Pray for pow!

    Best veneer print topsheet I've seen.

    Those traditional topsheet skinny Q's are also very nice. I like vibrant color.

    Edit: you guys actually pick clamps? I usually walk into my local shop and ask what's ok for good skiing, going cheap, and easy to step into in pow.

    Roll call for Skinny Q owners.

    Betelgeuse
    STLHD

    anyone else?

    I'm coveting several reviews (skinny Rx, Skinny GPO, Exp)...

    but I think I'm most interested in the Skinny Q.

    So, you know.

    Mine have quite a bit of tip rocker length.


    Compared to these standard Quixotes

    Praxis Quixote - Jumped the Shark or Legit?

    Mine are Skinny, but they seem to have around 10cm more tip rocker than the standard.. based on pictures.

    I told Keith I wanted something I can butter and play around on, as well as charge. I told him I basically wanted a K2 marksman that was beefier and more stable, without giving up too much butter-ability.

    I am extremely pleased with how they came out.

    The pic of the standard quixotes is of the tail rocker. Not the tip. Tip rocker looks the same to me.

    Praxis Quixote - Jumped the Shark or Legit?

    Still haven't decide haha. Here are my current ideas, will be with Fluoro orange FKS. I'm leaning towards turquoise or purple, or stay grey or black for low-key look

    Orange:

    Looks fantastic! I vote for Orange. The color pops more, and matches the rest of the tan/brown tones well.

    Purple for sure! the orange/gold looks pretty sweet, but idk how it'll work with orange fks... this whole process of yours seems backwards?
