Stomping Grounds:
I roam the streets of Reno and explore the mountains of Tahoe. -
Bio:
I'm a big mountain skier that learned to ski on the icy mountains of Maine. Eventually I got smart, drove 3,000 miles west and found a new playground in Tahoe.

Moment Ruby Alpine Ski

I'm a freestyle coach for Squaw and I find myself using these in the moguls very often. They are not ideal because they are powder skis but they will work. Also it depends on how you will be skiing the bumps. If you are just plowing through they are great. If you actually want to ski a line it may be a bit more tricky, but it can be done.
