Yeah, the net is great!
In terms of mogul ski, seems the going rate on 1-2 yr models on the net is about half the MSRP ($200-$350), if you can get them lower, then you're getting a good deal.
Hart is missing the boat on this, IMO, the market is slim on a "high performance" mogul skis. Even if they claim durability, I don't see how they can prevent core shots or edge deforms when taking these skis out in the woods or dirt bottom troughs.
The cynic in me thinks they want to sell at $500 b/c they can't compete with volume manufacturing.
