scott, for the groomers the S6 definitely handles the corduroy better. for the pow the S7s are your go to ski. you have to decide if you want a totally traditional fun poppy ski with relatively low turning radius (S6) or a pow oriented ski with wider dimensions and a rockered tip and tail, fun ski that does surprisingly well on groomers with an even smaller turning radius (S7). two different skis...
