The Drifts are great light weight powder skis... but ride them in anything but the fluffiest of powder and you might feel like they are lacking power.
Pros: Light weight, responsive, quick turning
Cons: Too soft- not for more aggressive skiers
I find these skis are great for their lightness and responsiveness but overall I would not buy them again. I am an advanced skier (used to ski instruct) and I like to ski aggressively. I find the skis too soft for my style of skiing and I would only recommend them for beginner to intermediate skiers. I guess I should have known given that they are so light but I was being optimistic in hoping I could find an all around great ski.
