Dos' Koops get it done.

By Ranked #128 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis January 2, 2009

Wanted a daily driver to replace my 186 Line Prophet 100's. Tough task. Had to be as fat and carve well if things got firm. Well the 28th and 29th at Kirkwood things firmed up. Mounted mine at the middle mark with an Axial 140 Ti Pro with a bit of lift. Was worried about stability but no worries. On edge they haul ass and hold amazingly well way outside. You will get some skip on super steep groom if you are pushin it because of the width. Lots of fun on roller coaster terrain as you can throw these from side to side and rail turns. Weird talkin about groomers I know. These are glassy but damp. Will kick some because of no metal so you just adjust your technique when bumpy terrain comes. A Katana or Prophet have metal in them so they will tend to stay down and punch comparitively is my guess since I have skied em both in chop and pow. Verdict still out on crud and pow with these. Should be fun.
