Volkl Mantra Alpine Ski
October 19, 2009
I have tried the gotamas, mantras and katanas. For me the Katanas is where its at. I felt they were the best for all conditions. What sealed the deal for me was when I demoed the Katans on a day when there had been no new snow for weeks. The Katans performed way better on the hard pack and ice then I had ever thought. I have no input on the coombas because I have never tried them.
Like Sam said the best thing to do is demo the ski (in multiple conditions if you can) to see what works best for you.

Dalbello Sports Krypton iL Moro I.D. Ski Boot - Men's
October 14, 2009
They come with a second black tongue that is stiffer. They also come with heal wedges that allows you to change the forward lean of the boot. I use the big wedges and the black tongue. With that setup there is no place the iL Moro cant go.
