I need to replce my skis for next season and want something that performs well everywhere (i.e. park and powder)
Ive been riding the seth pistols, and want something that can do everything as well as the pistol did.

If you like Pistols, the extra 3mm is nothing.

^^^my pistols may take me anywhere....but bumps is the one place they do not go. so an extra 3mm would suck even more

why you gotta get rid of the pistols? those really are the best skis out there for what you want to do.




why use a big word when a diminutive one will suffice?

the new seth is wider but actually has more sidcut making it more turny on the hardpack.

you really need to narrow it down to a couple sticks that suit your style of skiing, sidecut wise, width, and flex.

I would say the Vicious, I don't think an extra 3mm width is going to make a huge difference in the bumps. Demo them if you can though and see what you think


big whoop wanna fight about it?
