Would this ski be to narrow on the underfoot dimension for powder?

That completely depends on your height, weight, and whether or not you like skiing *in* the powder or *on* the powder. As long as you're not 250 lbs and 6' 4", this ski is great for skiing in the powder. With dimensions like 116-80-105, you won't sink, and you'll enjoy nice, deep turns.If you're really worried, check out Rossi's Scratch Brigade. The Brigade knows its way around the park and backcountry like nobodies business. This Brigade Pro is slightly different from the Brigade, but still holds its ground:http://www.backcountry.com/store/ROS0230/Rossignol-Scratch-Brigade-Pro-Ski.htmlIf you want a great all mountain ski, the Rossi Bandit straight up rocks:http://www.backcountry.com/store/ROS0223/Rossignol-Bandit-B94-Alpine-Ski.htmlhttp://www.backcountry.com/store/ROS0222/Rossignol-Bandit-B100-Quad-Alpine-Ski.htmlhttp://www.backcountry.com/store/ROS0122/Rossignol-Bandit-B104-Squad-Alpine-Skis.htmlHaving skied this ski, I can add a little to this. Compared to my powder skis, this ski feels like a twig under my foot. I wouldn't recommend this as a powder ski, however, compared to most park skis this ski excels at all mountain skiing.
