So mine are in the mail, just wondering if anyone has any opinions on them. These are a pow skis for all you park rats out there, so dont go thinking its some new rossi twin. After some serious internal debating i decided on the 185's over the 195's.

I'm pretty sure that most people on the site know what the B3 is.

Why would you bother to ask for peoples opinions AFTER you bought a pair of skis? Wouldn't it be more logical to ask BEFORE you bought them?

BakerBoy, logic has no place in this forum. Please STFU. ;)

I have ridden the xxx's enough to get a pretty good idea that i wanted these skis, but i just wanted to see what people thought.

Woah! Bakerlocal, you are going to be in for a bit if a surprise since the B3 does not ski like the XXX. It's softer, lighter, a little easier to turn, and IMO more versatile. It's a really good ski. FYI, the 195 cm version is actually constructed differently than the 185 - it would have felt more similar to the XXX that you tried.

Again, 185 is different but more fun - unless you live in Alaska or France...

yea the b3 rocks. I wish it came in a 188 or 189, but it is sick. they redesigned the sidewall and made it beefier so that it won't blow out all the time. much better ski than the xxx. in fact the whole b line is much better than the x, xx, xxx line.


check it.
