Gets you down the hill...fast.

By Rob Conn Ranked #314 - Alpine Skiing February 23, 2011

I have the Jet Fuels as the main ski in my quiver, and they handle pretty much everything that comes there way. This past weekend I skied everything from racing gates to a backcountry bowl at Kicking Horse and was confident they could handle the conditions.

On the groomers they rip, from soft green corduroy to icy steep blacks they are stable and hold the line like a pair of race skis.

In the crud they have the strength to blast through day old tracks and allow you to cut your own path.

I've skied them in up to 20cm of fresh powder and they perform well and the wide shovel up front does a great job of keeping you on top.

My only gripe is that they are pretty heavy skis, and at the end of a long day of skiing can become a little hard to handle. The 2010-2011 skis are lighter than previous models.

If you love to go fast on the groomers, but also like to venture into the bowls then these are the skis you want strapped to your feet. The skis are bullet proof, won't chatter.

I'm a level 5 skier, 6 feet and 170lbs and rock the 170cm skis.
