I would agree. The Zealots rip in powder and lumpy dense snow. The progressive rocker really does float over that stuff. They like to be ski'd fast and hard. As long as you can drive them, and like to ski big fast lines, they are the best ski's out there. Fun on groomers too. Little it of chatter, but pretty damn good for a rippin' haulin ass big mountain ski.

You ski aggressive and are looking for a 50/50 ski for pow. That spells Zealot in my books. The 110 mm width will be sweet for the BC and pow days, and isn't really, considering skis these days, that wide to make it unwieldily on a groomer. Stay on top of the ski, and make sure it isn't driving you, and this baby will be all you need.
