I have been skiing the AK Rockets split tail do you think the BBR will be able to keep up to them at Snowbird?

I think the BBR will be way more fun than the swallows and they'll rip way harder on the firm. Since the swallows are 195 and the longest BBR is 186, they may not have the same top end speed when pointing it in pow, but that's the only case I can think of. These skis do it all, I've been on them a handful of times and always loved them.
