Help Needed: Atomic Nomad Blackeye

Anyone been on a pair (or one, if you're very talented)? I'm skiing 157 Atomic me (was told they are Metron 10, but that isn't on the sheet) for many years; I love them but they're going to give it up soon. Found a screaming deal on 157 Blackeye and wonder how they compare. I weigh:duck: 130-135, 5'6", belong to AARP, and still like to go fast and carve. No off piste, I still have a day job. Thanks! Time for a ski; the sun is out, the snow is good, and the football fanatics should all be home tapping the keg!

Blackeye's - 157 has a 16m turning radius. 116.5-79-102.5 These are an all mountain ski. Drive or Cloud series are their carvers. According to SkiPress - not for short radius, they're big turners. Don't get in the back seat either. Considered a high performance multi-conditional ski.

If you're looking to replace your Metron - Heaven's Gate would be the ski.

I skied these last year for a day in fresh snow and really like them. They just seemed to do everything I wanted without much fuss, I'm not a great skier and din't find them difficult to ski at all although I was skiing them a little short, I'm 5ft9 and I was skiing around 165ishcm.
