so i was thinkin bout maybe gettin some new skis and was lookin at nordica ignition but i was wondering how it skis. i really want a ski that has great all mountain capability, turns well , etc vs things such as buttering which is not as important. so for those of you out there who have skied them how do you like them?

also is there a difference between 06-07 and 07-08 and 08-09 or is it just graphics?

i have the 07 ignitions and i really like them. i took them out to utah last year and they were awesome for places like snowbird and alta. i didnt get any powder so i dont know how they handle the powder but they were awesome for groomers and crud. since nordica is a very good european ski racing company these skis were able to make high speed turns better than most othere twins. I also took these to park city and they were awesome for the big jump lines at park city. It is a fairly stiff ski but it has good pop for rails. i dont know if there is any difference between the other models but i really like the ones i have

the 08s and 09s are the same, stiff under foot and really soft in the tips and tail. the 07s were stiff all through the ski. if you dont want to butter, do not get them. the tips are softer than any other ski that i have felt. they are alot softer than my invaders at the tip, even with the butter zone on the invaders.
