Ski run for $650, bindings $425. I paid roughly $825. A little more than I was planning on.

Ski: Blizzard Titan Nine
Length: 181cm
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 135lbs
Ability: Advanced- Advanced/Expert
Snow: Deep powder, crud, chop, bumps, groomed, hardpack
Terrain: Trees, Steeps, Open Bowls, Chutes, Groomers

Powder: Very good float for 86mm in the waist. The tail sunk right in and the tips never went under. They don't give you the surfy feel of fatter skis though.

Crud/Chop:Plows through everything. Doesn't get bounced around. Loves to get airborne and very playful.

Bumps:A little work in the bumps, although better than expected. A little to stiff for the bumps, but still fun.

Groomed/Hardpack:Tons on snap out of every turn. These thing load up with energy and spring you out of every turn. No problems with edge hold.Feels like you're on rails. Very quick edge to edge for the waist.

Trees:Very manageable in the trees. Quick edge to edge. They're are probably my favorite skis in the trees. So much fun.No complaints here.

Overall:If there is one ski I could think of as a one ski quiver this would be it. Does everything atleast decent, if not very well. Very fun, playful ski, but work when in the bumps. For everything but bumps, this ski rocks. This will be my future everday ski.

I probably left a lot out. If you have any questions just ask.
