They are super wonderful skis. Well, I have only tested them out at the Glasgow snowdome so far but they were fun. (Sorry Rossfra8 couldn't see you there)
I bought them in the sale from Ellis Brigham for £260 along with marker 12.0 bindings.
They are stiffer than the Punisher but are just as forgiving and fun.
The Neos are one of those skis that make you look good but have enough oomf to keep you smiling.
Another advantage is that they are semi-twin tipped so you don't get the huge rooster tail behind you but you can still go in reverse comfortably.
Alot of people don't like the topsheet but I like that it is just that little bit different from the rest.
I have to leave work now but I'll add more tonight (or tomorrow depending how tired I am after the gym)
Cheers

I'm trying to think what else I can add, these ski will go as fast as you can push them but are nice and cruisy too.
It took me about one run to get used to the wider waist but it skis like a narrower wasted carver.
I really need to take these skis to a proper mountain and throw them about a bit.

Just what I was hoping to hear, Hirsty. My learned friend who likes a skinny GS ski suggested these were too fat to carve. It seems your experience and the reviews on the ski I have found confirm this is not the case, and that the sidecut enhances carving.
He did tell me I might not like them on bumpy icy pistes, but I dont like bumpy icy pistes anyway!
Let me know how you get on on them in the real stuff.
