Replying to Need help picking out skis for next year
For the past two seasons I've been riding on Salomon Foils (blue/white/red ones). I liked them enough.
I'm looking to get skis for the upcoming season but have no idea where to start.
I ski all mountain most of the time, but I want a ski thats good for buttering and bonks but also the occasional jump sesh. I ski at loon, so the jumps aren't redic huge but they're decent sized. I do more jibbing and bonking then I do jumps.
I was looking at the afterbangs (just because of the hype) but it seems like they wouldn't be that great for outside of the park. Loon is East coast so I ride pretty much only groomers with the occasional powder day.
Sparknotes:
Looking for something that is...
-Light
- Buttery
- Holds up well on jibs/bonks
- Handles jumps
- East coast groomers (I need something that can carve decently)
Any help is appreciated (and is returned with karma!)
