I've been skiing a pair of 190 CM Volant Chubb's and while they are a great all mountain ski, excellent in powder, they got all skittery when I started to zoom on the steep groomers. The Chubb's were damaged when another skier whacked me last year at Deer Valley, so I had to get new one's. Then I found out that they don't make them anymore, so I was forced to find a replacement. I bought the Legend Pro Rider based on the recommendation of the Backcountry Gear Heads, my ability and due to it's similar size and shape to my Chubb's. I could not be any happier with my choice! I can go as fast as I want down those steep groomers again, with no high speed jitters. Oh man, I missed that! No more "scary" fast, just "fun, fun, fun" fast from now on. In 35 years of skiing, these are the best ski's I've ever used! Turns like a 190, but goes fast like a 210. What could be better than that?
