I'm an advanced agressive downhill skier in reasonably good condition. I started XC a year ago by renting skis and skiing on forest roads or over snow mobile tracks when I can find them. I'm ready to buy and want a good ski for beaking new snow or sking on snowmobile packed trails. Is this a good ski or do you recommend something else?Thanks in advance

I have this ski Bill and it's just what you need. I use it to break trail and to climb various mountains here in Washington state. It's slightly wider than my old Fischer touring skis, which is nice when carrying a heavy pack and decending moderate to steep slopes. Really nice design, love the edges, and time will tell if they hold up like my 10 year old Fischer skis that finally started to delaminate after many climbs and much abuse. Just climbed Round Mt. (a six hour ski/snowshoe accent) and am off to the store for a well earned beer ~ happy skiing ~ Erik
