Replying to Pow Sticks
So I'm looking to get a pair of pow sticks for next season. My original plan was to get a new pair of park skis as my Punx are fucked and only getting worse. (Edge missing underfoot on one ski, edge bent up and 30+cm's of base pokes out on the other, no more camber in tails, etc.) But after thinking about it, I'd rather deal with beat park skis and fork out some cash for something I've never really had the opportunity to ski, pow sticks. I know nothing about pow skis but I know what I want in this ski.
Firstly, my info.
I am:
5'6
120lbs
Decent in the park, can ski pow pretty well considering I've only ever skied it on center mounted park skis.
When there is pow I get to ski mostly trees and cliffs, so I need something that will perform in those areas. Biggest cliff stomped is 20+, if that's relevant.
What I want in a ski:
Soft
Playful
My current skis are 173cm's, been skiing them since I was 5'2 so I can handle a ski with a bit more length.
If I'm missing anything let me know.
Thanks,
Frodo.
