I am thinking about getting skis. I have narrowed it down to 5 choices, These, volkl gotama, Volkl katana, k2 obsethed, and armada jj. I like big mountain skiing, and ski at squaw and alpine meadows. The ski will have to be really good in crud, and powder.
Thanks, please reply soon.

Actually, I ski these big mountain all year and they rip! They are stiff enough to charge on but soft enough to jib on too. Once you put them on your feet you won't ever take them off. Believe me. December too April and I also have skied them all year on the FWT.

Brennan, It seems like what you want is a big mountain ripper that can do just as well in the powder. Unfortunately these skis, the Night Trains, wont do too well when it comes to big mountain skiing. They're rather soft and love to play and jib around a lot. When yu look at your other options you see have some good skis lined up. The volkls are on the stiffer side of things and are not going to be all that playful. The Obsetheds and the JJs are probably your best shots. Both skis are getting amazing reviews and do really well in both the powder and big mountain catgories. I would definitely take a closer look at those skis and see what you really want. Hope this helps!
