Im trying to decide between the Coomback and Sidestash. I like the 102 waist of the coomback but im on the fence about the full cap construction. I want a ski that I can take into the back or side country but still charge on the resort if conditions are not the best.

I would definitely get the sidestash based on what you're saying. It is a stiffer ski throughout because of the metal laminate in it. The coomback has a softer, flexier tip. If you're skiing it in the resort, you're not going to enjoy it when charging or on run outs. The sidestash is a great dual purpose ski, light enough for the bc, stiff enough for the resort. Based on what you're saying, the sidestash is what you want.
