My all time favorite ski is the Sir francis bacon which I use in all conditions at Alyeska. I was thinking about a pair of EP pro's with Marker Duke's as a backcountry, occasional resort setup. Any thoughts? My only concern is going much wider than the Bacon. I am however intrigued by the early rise concept. My dream ski would be the Bacon with just a hint of early rise and about 5 cm longer. I guess my question is would the Duke's compliment this ski or sort of defeat the purpose?

EP pros with dukes is a rather large setup. If you are "touring" go lighter(smaller). If you are just skinning back up from the side country then it will work just fine. You may be able to settle for the Marker Barons...depends on your weight. Remember, fat skis will require fat skins and beefy binders that will add weight.another ski you should look at is the armada jj's. they are about the same size as the bacon's but with a little bit of early rise
