Does Everyting!

By Backcountry.com Employee February 11, 2009

Makes everything almost too easy. The rockered tip and tail help to keep the ski from getting swallowed in bigger pow amounts and the amount of effective edge and sidecut actually gives some good/great short turn carving. The only negative on this ski is it doesn't handle the icy crud too well.

As for the mounting of these skis, I've seen a lot of opinions and I figured I would give mine as well. I put the Marker Dukes on these skis at +3. Yes, it does lessen the tip, but then I just treat it like a slalom ski and keep my balance point near the middle of the ski.

Overall, this ski is for any all mountain or big mountain skiers who get into big pow as much as they do groomers. Also, the topsheet is cool, it definitely grows on you.
