GREAT skis

By Backcountry.com Employee March 20, 2009

I love these skis. I ski them with an 01 BD binding, but I am having some trouble making tele turns on them so next season i will switch them to AT, They are a fun, stiff ski. They float really well, are great at busting through crud and hold a good edge on hard pack. I did ski a pair of 180s (too long) with the fritchi bindings and they were fun and FAST on the groomers if you push them hard, but I had trouble getting them around in the trees (like I said too long). I can't wait to get my 170s set up with AT bindings, it will be a killer Utah setup.
