Replying to Touring on rockered skis

    hey there.      so i'm going to buy a new pair of skis for next year, i've got my park skis (movement joysticks) and my skiing skis (k2 maden''s), but i'm in need of a full on powder/touring ski.     i've got normal downhill bindings on my k2's and the trekkers aren't doing it for me any more so i'm going for a nice touring set up.       but here's the thing.   i've been trying rockered skis out lately and they're fun as hell - totally interested in buying a pair.  i mean, they're going to be my pow/touring skis so having a sweet rockered ski would be good...     the only thing is the skinning part.

some friends and i were talking about it and the system seams a little flawed when you are on a packed skin trail due to the lack of surface area on the base.    does anybody have experience with touring on rockered skis?
