I live in Utah. I'm looking for a tele ski primarily for lift serviced powder days. Wasatch powder is incredibly light so I'm trying to decide between the Storm and Storm BC. Using Scarpa T1 with BD 02 bindings and I weigh 175. Thanks

Hey man, I'd go fatter than 96mm... Especially if you'd like this to be a dedicated powder ski. These Karhus are made light for touring, but if you're going to be doing primarily resort skiing, you should get something fatter and heavier, it will help with downhill performance. Check out the K2 Anti Pistes, which I really dig, they have a little rocker in the tip, which really helps with tip dive... or if you are really looking for a pure powder vehicle, why not the BD Megawatts?
