A revalation

By Howard Worton Ranked #70 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis March 17, 2009

I am 182cm(5' 11") and am 205 lbs.

My regular skis are : K2 Seth 07/08 179, 4Frnt MSP 07/08 181.

I demoed the S7 at Park City the day after last weeks' big storm and was blown away. I had never tried a true rockered ski - the Seth does not count - and was slightly nervous of their performance. I needn't have been. They are super easy to get on with - as long as you don't take liberties on the hardpack. As everyone has said, they crush everything even remotely soft. I won't repeat everyone elses comments but it is true, they rock. I skied the 188 and it felt no longer than my MSPs, if in doubt go longer. These skis are almost impossible to find in the 2009 guise but as a forewarning for 2010 - which I believe are very similar but with a slightly narrower waist - buy 'em now before they sell out.
