Anyone tried the Åsnes Fik?

I found a very good deal with voile switchback

Cool!
Don't know this ski.
Any specifications on it?
Cross-country AND down-hill skiing in the backcountry.
Unashamed to be a "cross-country type" and love skiing down-hill.

Per Johnny:

It all exploded in 2014-2015 with several different new models. They came up with the updated Carbon Storetind, the FYK which is similar to the currant Tindan 86 but weighted 1340g just 3 years ago, the Tind with a 98mm waist at 1650g per ski, the brand new Eggi at 135-108-125 and the fat Bratt PRO. It was also around that time that we saw more and more Asnes skis being imported in America and sold online.

@mca80
Great! Thanks for digging that out!

@Charlynor
If the Fyk has a mid-80 waist- you will need a Telemark boot to hold it on edge on hard snow.
