Not yet...but they are totally different than the Comis. The Comis are a stiffer, all-mountain destroyer while the Melees are softer, center mount rockered pow slay3r. I'm just waiting for the pow. :)

Tempted to post this on Epic and ask for MA. :wink:
One of these days, I need to take a Southern Hemisphere trip. I'd be insanely jealous right now if I thought that, had I been there, I'd have been able to ski those lines too.
