I've heard that the 2008 Verdict performs a bit better than the 2007 as an all mountain ski. Has anyone skied both models and do you have a perspective on this?

I have skied both models. I spend most of my time touring and hiking in the backcountry. They changed the ski quite a bit- now it has a wood core, a tiny bit fatter, and stiffer. I ski aggressively and find that the 2008 responds better and handles all conditions with ease. I am a big fan of the wood core.
