Wow!

I bought these blind due to other write ups. My first venture into the twin tip category. Looking for a fat ski for those powder days in Maine. I was a little apprehensive having such a fat ski in the east. Mounted with Marker Dukes and using an AT boot. I took these from the groomers to the 2 foot pow we had yesterday. I am in love! Handled the groomers like no other fat ski with quick edge to edge(I think the Duke provides better edge transfer for fat skis anyway) high speed ripping. Snappy and responsive. Dropped into the steep and deep crud for a remarkable ride. No tail hangup in deep, but the tail held when encountering a windblown face of blue ice(Wow!) Other soft tailed powder skis will just blow out on ice like that. Skis crud like it isn't even there. Short christies or long GS turns, nothing fazes it. The most comfortable forgiving and lightweight ski. Me 200lbs, 6'4" chose a 179 length. Plenty of ski for me in eastern trees, but would jump to the 186 for out west. A sure thing! I may never ski my carvers again.
