I had a pair of 2016 LX82s. They were "fine" I just wasn't wowed. They were more than capable on the Vermont hardpack but I just didn't feel that energy I like to feel. They were capable but my socks just weren't knocked off. I know they make a fine ski but I just didn't get that holy sh!t these are awesome vibe i like. Now my Head Rallys va va voom but I digress :) different strokes.....

Just FYI, I've been skiing the RX12 SL in a 165 a bunch this start of the season, and I absolutely love this ski! It is precise, powerful, and extremely fun. I thought my MX84's were the ticket to nirvana, but I've become a narrow ski addict. Except for Sunday, when I was one of the first into KT Gully and a bunch of hollow snow. The 84 was a better tool that day, but I might have wished for a BMX 105...
