Megawatts...Megafun and Megaheavy

By Ranked #369 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis February 25, 2009

Had an awesome time telemarking on the Megawatts in the Teton Backcountry, but a not so awesome time skinning in them. They are super heavy and not the best for a day of touring, much better suited for lifts, helicopters, and snow cats. But somehow I can't stop thinking about them, they make powder turns, more fun, efficient, and surfy. When BD makes a pair that are a lighter I will be the first to buy a pair!
