To anyone out there who skis both, say there is a foot of blower, do you jj or arg? I know jj is the jack of all trades, but if you have the option of both for powder, how do you roll? Are these skis comparable for crud? Thanks for any input.

It is really just personal preference. Some people like to sink into the powder. with the arg youll sink in like an inch and it will be easy to ski. With the jj youll sink in a little more, get more face shots and everything good about powder. But the real thing you have to look at is that it's not going to be those same snow conditions all the way down. Somewhere along the line it will be hardpack or even ice so the jj will be a lot better choice i think.
