What is the powder performance of these skis compared to a skinnier waisted ski like the JJ? I am wondering if it would be better to get a less powder specific ski for in-bounds pow days, because I like to ski all day, not just untracked fresh.

I skied both of these this past year and I think the answer above is a little overrated. I would only go with this ski if you are going to be somewhere it is dumping constantly. I really liked the JJ's and found them to be much more dimensional.

Well the pow performance in the ARG is no comparison to the JJ, they blow the JJ out of the snow. But if you want something for all day, the go JJ, because these on the groomers or after everything is tracked out just isn't as fun.
