title says it all.

yea this is a stupid thread but im looking to buy some new skies this winter and the YLE seems like the perfect fit.

I patrol so i need a solid work ski, yet at th same time i rip around jumping off of anything and everything and love the deep powder. Seems like the ski is made for me and i will probably throw some touring bindings on there as well.

other info about me:

6 foot 1, 200 lbs, expert skier, college kid. like to have fun.

anything else im missing?

They look like a pretty solid ski.
More big mountain jib orientated, but I know a lot of patrol who ski on big sticks like that.

Can't say much for it, except I really want to try a pair this year.

Go for it.

Here is a good discussion

it's a great ski. as stated before BC/big mtn jib machine. super playful and great swing weight. it's a giant ass park ski essentially.

i'm 6'2" and 200 and i'm deciding between the EHPs and Renegades this season, will be working for Vail Mountain Safety. I would love a pair of YLEs but I don't foresee the need to have a ski that wants to ride switch that much while working. ya feel me?

either way - it's a sick ski. likes to go fast and is still pretty fun and carvy despite being a big ol beast
