Black Diamond Megawatt Ski

Item #BLD1308 | 7 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Holy Cold Smoke Batman.

By Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete Ranked #145 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis October 10, 2008

These skis are incredible. I can not say enough good things. The tip rocker make these skis very turnable even in the 188 length. So do not be afraid to buy them as long or a little longer than you are used to. For telemark skiers the dreaded "tip dive" is virtually eliminated by the unsinkable rockered tip on the Megawatt. The progressive flex gives this ski a nice tail that can handle hard charging skiers no problem yet this ski still seems to be the most user friendly fat ski I have ever skied. 5 stars really doesn't do it. As far as powder big-mountain boards go this ski is 6 stars for sure!
