Yeah These Are Pretty Cool...

By Backcountry.com Employee March 5, 2009

The sharply angled rocker makes Surface skis really distinctive. I expected the skis to be a little catchy around the rocker point, but that wasn't the case. Smooth turning, super light, stable for their weight, and pretty fun in variable snow. I wasn't stoked on the sharply rockered tail though. It makes the ski feel super short and it doesn't have the same surfy feel of some other reverse camber sticks. Might be worth it to move the bindings forward a bit to increase the stability at higher speeds and on bigger drops.
