I’ll start by saying I was really impressed with the base graphics on these. Great design and colors.
They came with some wax on them but of course I went ahead and waxed them, twice with swix all temp wax ( the blue stuff )
I could NOT BELEIVE HOW FAST THESE BASES ARE when properly waxed. I came off the summitt lift at butternut and I just kept sliding and sliding, even uphill they just kept on going.
But how were they on the rails, you’re wondering ? excellent.
I was initially concerned about the stability on some big airs but I even overshot a couple landing zones and had no problems.
Got a few more stares then usual, I would then remark to the starer ” weird, huh ? ” and they just stand there with their mouth open not knowing what to say.
So If you’re on the fence about either getting the EMP or the BWP, I’d say if you’re more inclined for heaving powder bashing action get the EMPS, and If you like rails and terrain parks more get the BWP, but they both excel in either area.
