By Ranked #1705 - Alpine Fat Skis March 3, 2009

I am mid lvl ski'r whos interested in a well rounded ski that can take me through the crud and pow but truely shred the groomed stuff. I am torn between the Volki Mantra or Volki Unlimited AC50. I've never used a wide ski so im curious what the differance between the two would be and what would be better for me. I ski mostly east coast. Any feedback would be great thank you.

It depends a little on your skiing style. The AC50 is a groomer ski meant to be put on edge. The mantra is more of an all mountain ski that would feel more at home in some deeper stuff. If you mostly stick to groomers, I would go AC50; if you plan on doing a little more all-mountain skiing and throwing in some trees and some west coast trips, go with the mantra.
