Not the ski for me

By Backcountry.com Employee March 23, 2009

Sorry, but this ski was a total buzz kill for me. Granted I did got to a flat resort on a hard pack day with moguls, and more moguls as far as the eye could see. I thought the ski was grabby on a icy slope, sucked on crust wind pack, and could not find any confidence in them at high speeds on a icy groomer. I usually ski longer skis, my daily driver is the 190 Volkl KATANA. It was hard to image that these skis could be good at all in fresh snow becasue they sucked. I did find that you could straight line in a side slip at high speeds and the ski made me feel like a clown in a resort town. I tried them for a day and would never buy them for my own.
