Write your question here...I just had my Karhu Jak skis stolen. I am wanting to get another pair (179cm) but cannot find any. Is the Karhu Storms comparable?

The Storm is definitely comparable to the Jak, which it replaces in the line. Its design blends the wider waist and stability of the older Jak with the most recent Jak's versatility, with a new construction (3D-milled core and metal shape). Edgehold is better than the Jak was, in my opinion, but the sidecut is a little straighter. The 177cm Storm will ski similar to the 179cm Jak, since the Storm has a flatter tail and skis truer to length. If you liked the feel of the Jak, I think you'd really like the Storm. Thanks,Graham at Karhu
