Altai SKi's

Has anone tried the new Kom's ? They look like they may give a good balance for what I like.
Personally, I have a BC setup, that is ok, but I'm not a big fan of putting skins on and off, and while the Garmont Excursions certainly beet an alpine boot, I still usually use HOKS , despite my poor form at time due to the ability to just use my preferred hiking boot.
I find the hoks difficult to control in dust and crust, and not really enough side cut for conditions that are not powder. If I could improve those aspects, it would be a real winner in my book.
