By Ranked #385 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis August 22, 2010

Hey guys,
I am hesitating between these in 182 and the Atomic 185 Blog. I demoed both last year and had a blast on both...
I am 6' 210Lbs expert skiing and I do ski anywhere on the mountains depending on whom I am skiing with....
I do have a pair of Xwings fury in 177 and a Crossmax 8.9 in 175 for hard pack days or early season.
Live in Utah, so pow is not an issue.
Really enjoy skiing big powder bowls as well as tree lines...
Any recommendation?
Cheers!

I prefer these over the blogs having skied both, mostly because I like having lots of tip rocker but tradition camber in the tail. Skis short when I want it to be very maneuverable (slower tighter conditions) and long when I want it to be stable (fast open conditions). Hope that helps!
