they are a cross country ski so they probably won't do too well.

agreed, you should get something thinner for powder.

Yeah id look for a ski with a waist less then 70.
then again who needs skis at all? snowblades are GREAT in powder.

yea, but people back in the day shredded pow on skinny straight skis. but, techonology has changed, and so should we.

I think you should mount them farther back, that's just my humble opinion. I find the tips dive a little bit mounted on the "Freeride" line, and this year I'm personally going to mount mine 1.5" back from the FR line

yeah, it's pretty interesting these days that we're wondering if a ski with a 92mm waist would be good for pow... those would have been ginourmous AK only beasts about 6 years ago... now people buy 90mm waists for park.

if you want to use them all mountain/pow/park i would say closer to center is fine. mine are 1cm back from center and they rode good in the pow at baker this tuesday. these are my skis for park too thats why i mounted them like that but i dont regret it at all. if your doing liek mostly pow and all moutain, then go freeride i guess.

i'll be doing mostly all-mtn and park, not a lot of pow, only on vacation or really snowy days in VT... i'm thinking going farther back only because it seems like a really small amount of tip, the ski seems kind of short even on freeride. comparing them to my old Pollards, from the freeride line they have the exact same amount of tail and about 6cm less tip.

Sure sounds a hell of a lot like the ones I used that someone uses for ALL their urban shit. I still enjoyed em though. What a fucking day... Everyone back in socal is so jealous.
