In the near future I'm looking to get a backcountry(mainly sled access), powder set up. I came across Moment and found that they make some pretty good stuff. How forgiving is this ski? I ride line prophets and love them, they're just sometimes a lot of work in the pow. I also want to know what kind of binding anyone would recommend for this setup? I'm 5'10", 160lbs...

Thanks in advance!

Hey Ian, The Bibby is a fairly forgiving ski. Could be a combination of the rockered tail and one that is a softer flex than the rest of the ski, but I've found that they will not overpower you nor will they be punishing if your form is off. Regarding powder, the large shovel up front combined with tip rocker will take all the work off your legs. While the 190 Bibby handles deep snow very well, the 186 length has zero camber making flotation easier to attain without having to work harder for it.
