Great Multi-Purpose Ski/ Lightweight

Just had my first season on these skis. We didn't have good snow in the Canadian Rockies, but I had my chance at a wee bit of powder, and the skis were fantastic. They are lightweight but still wide enough to cut through the powder. Also took them for a day at the ski hill and felt confident on them even though they are touring skis.
I tried them on pretty much everything: long tours, turns through the trees, in powder, on groomed hill, skinning, ski mountaineering etc. So far I feel it is my skiing that needs to improve, not the ski! Highly recommended and pretty good looking, too.
I got them fitting with the Dynafit Vertical ST bindings - so they are super lightweight when I need to strap them to the pack.
