By dick speechly Ranked #368 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis September 22, 2011

I have the s7 and mount them 1.5 ahead of zero. I like the feel but am one who likes the feel of being a little forward charging on my skis. Doesn't feel over the handle bars to me. This is a quick ski 17.5 radius and handles all terrian very well. My take on this type of ski i.e. full rocker with camber, is that they work best in 3+ inches of powder but the more I ski it it works well as a one ski quiver as you ajust to this type of ski and the snow stays on the soft side. The harder the snow conditions become the more squirrely this type of ski is due to the shorten effective edge contact of the ski. For those stuggling with whether you should go with the s7 or the super 7, I would error on the softer side i.e. the s7. A powder ski is really about a softer ski feel unless your skiing some AK straight line. Just don't think adding the metal to this ski is necessary for resort powder style skiing. My specs. are wt 165, ht 5'10'' and I ski the 188cm. Expert skiier. Wasatch Front.
