Megawatt

By February 12, 2008

Ok, so I have quite a few days on this ski and I can say this is the best ski I've ever skied. I've heard from others that have skied this ski it's like "cheating", making skiing like "a video game". It's true, this ski really opens up the terrain to your imagination, rather than being limited by snow conditions. Obviously it rips powder, but it also makes heavy crud, chowder, pillow bumps, slow trees, fast trees, steep slopes, low angle... everything is MORE FUN. Like exponentially more fun. It turns big, it turns tight, fast, slow, it's ridiculously forgiving... They even work very well when forced to ski groomers between stashes. Everyone from intermediates to insane-o will instantly be able to rip the next level. Skinny ski rando racers need not apply, this is the future of backcountry (and side country, and in-bounds ripping and...)
