Great skis

By Ranked #51 - Alpine Park and Pipe Skis January 16, 2008

I demoed these, Fischer Wateas, Rossi Scratches, and Volkl Gotamas. I really like the Gotamas, too, but I wanted this ski to do everything and the Gotamas seemed a bit too wide for my skill level (approximately 7/8). I have skied these (185s) in all conditions including deep powder. I definitely think I made the right choice except I could use more width in deep powder. That was to be expected though, so I am very happy. I also weigh 190, so these would provide more float for a lighter skier riding 185s. I like the twin tips because I sometimes need to go backwards when stuck in a tight tree/rock situation on steeper pitches. I think these are more of a bridge between regular skis and fat skis than they are a bridge between fat skis and park skis. Anyone looking for a fat, but not uber fat ski, should have a look at these. You don't need to have any experience in the park to appreciate these. Graphics are really nice.
