4 Star Rating

Excellent ski! A quiver of one!

By Ranked #754 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis November 26, 2008

Well, what can I say that has not already been said! This ski is great! As excellent on groomers and hardpack as a 100+ waisted ski can be, excellent in the chop and crud, and it tears apart any sort of powder you can throw at it. So far I have had it in a variety of situations and cannot say enough good about it. I also aired off a small wind pillow only to land in a small rock field. While the bases definetly needed a tune afterwards, there were NO core shots and the edges took the abuse like a champ! After the tune, the looked and skied like new! One thing that I don't like about them is they are a little planky feeling, though this might be due to my mount point (on the recommended line). All in all, if you are looking for ONE ski to do it all, the VCT is the ticket! They ski a little short, so, go up a size if you plan on using them in soft snow. They are pretty responsive edge to edge for a 100+ ski, but, still retain float!

It doesn't get much better than the VCT!
