Best ever.

By Ranked #250 - Telemark Skis and Alpine Touring Skis January 29, 2009

I just got my first day on these bad boys.

I'm about 155 pounds, 5'8. I picked up the 181 length ski, and was a tad worry that I went too long.

Last night we got between 12-21 inches of fresh here in VT. I took these up to Sugarbush, and the snow was peanut butter heavy with a windblown surface.

I was amazed at how well these bulldozed through this stuff. The difference between these and my ZAG Big's is remarkable, These were very easy to get around, but really plowed through the variable snow like nothing I've ever skied. It made the tricky conditions a blast.

I demoed these right after I skied the Volkl Mantra. The Mantra is a fun ski, but these blow them away.

Highly recomended.
