A ton of fun!

By Campo Ranked #171 - Alpine Fat Skis March 1, 2010

Rode this three days in the last week and love it! Took some getting used to at first, especially coming from BD Zealots. But, once you are used to them, they are a ton of fun! Did some pillow busting, followed by some fast groomers and crud (yup, railed through the crud with no problem), and ended with some leftover powder stashes and drops. These skis are great and I am really glad I got them. I am 5'8", 190#, and the ski handled me just fine, even at high speed. I even got into a tuck and pointed it from top of the mountain to the bottom and they were still really responsive and playful. Definetly not that fast edge to edge on the groomers, but, at 115 underfoot they were insanely versatile and a ton of fun. I can see where some hard chargers would fine some aspects to be desired, but, if you prefer a fun, playful ski that can do it all, look no further! I mounted mine on the recommended line and they have been GREAT! They don't sink in the pow, and as a matter of fast, if you watch the tips as you go through powder fast, you can see the tips "rocker" underneeath your feet, lifting you to the surface.
All in all, a great ski!
