Replying to Why so wide?
I really don't understand why skis (even powder skis) keep getting wider and wider. Soon everyone will have a snowboard on each foot. I know I am dating myself by saying this but *cough*I am an OG here*cough* and I realize people were saying it 10 years ago. But when is enough enough? People in the 90's ripped trees on Snow Rangers. Who remembers when the Pocket Rockets first came out? They looked like zeppelins. When was that? '04? They're only 90cm under foot! The idea that you can't ski "real" pow well without full rocker and at least 100cm underfoot is bunk, bitches.
