CoreUPT Adrien Coirier Ski - 2010 BCS

Like the other review said. This ski is fat but not too fat. Stiff but not too stiff. A good all around mountain ski. A great bargain for this price. I have other skis I would rather take out on super good pow days but in the afternoon when I want something more maneuverable and not quite as fat underfoot this is the call. Nice to see a good ski at a great price point.

The closest ski you find to the now 86ed Rossignol Squad/old Dynastar Pro Rideris this ski here. It is we bit softer than the Squad, but that was the stiff ski ever made. It has a super stiff tail to the waist, the waist to the tip has a little more give to it. It is becoming harder to find stiffer ski on the market these days.

This is a fat, but not so fat ski, but it is still a hell of a fun ride. This ski you have stay point with this burlier, stiffer model to enjoy, otherwise it'll ski you. This is on the smaller/narrower width on my powder ski quiver I have, but still lots of fun.

I have some rockered 118 to 125+ mm fat skis, which totally rule most days. When the snow is variable, this is a ski that can hold it's own on the less than desirable days or on the good days as well.

When I first moved out west, skis like this were the killer everyday pow ski everyone envied & now the market has exploded with all types of powder skis. Like I said, I've got a wide selection of pow skis, but sometimes a modest 102 mm waist with a stiff flex is all you need.

Us powder skiers are like 'Girls with shoes', we can never fully complete our ski quiver.

These have some nice stiff tails, but a little softer in the front half of the ski makes it a little more forgiving. This is a ski you can use to rip turns through chopped up chunder and it will feel like you are skiing fresh corduroy. As long as you can drive it, it will do what you want it to and make crud feel like fresh cord.
