Is there a big difference between the tornados and the furys? I am living and skiing in Switzerland for the last two years and have been using salomon o8 street racers which are fine on groomed piste but....ski mostly red runs and would like a ski a little more adaptable as conditions change and explore a bit of off piste areas....

The biggest difference between the Tornado and the Fury is the waist, the Fury has an 85mm waist to the Tornado's 79mm waist. I've used both skis and they are both solid in the powder and smooth and fast on the groomers. If you're going to mostly in the powder then go with the Fury, it has a little more float. If you're going to be mostly on-piste then stick with the Tornado, it cuts a turner a little faster. Both solid skis, just depends where you're going to be the most.
