DEstroys powder - good luck getting back to the lift

By Peter Sanford Ranked #23 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis November 21, 2008

Killer skis in tight trees and mega deep snow. the reverse sidecut design is revolutionary in its turning ability, especially high-speed powder washing, and turns on a dime. the float is nuts, it really feels like you are surfing more than skiing.

Get it on a groomer or cat track, and it's a different story. the combo of a center mount ski with a very small traditional sidecut area means that you need to stay focused and make sure you aren't going to go flying.

I also wouldn't recommend it as a big mountain ski. high speed super G turns down open faces are a lot easier on a more traditional fat ski.

bottom line: perfect ski for deep dark tree lines and pillows
