I'm looking to get me a new ride for some east coast ice/powder conditions. I've heard great things about the Francis Bacon's and the Soul 7's but not very much about the J skis. Anyone have an opinion?? Leave a vote below

I really enjoyed th soul. It's got a perfect soft flex in the tip and tail but stiffer underfoot which means you can ski them hard but still have a ton of fun on them. It is a shame they are not a twin. The bacon I found very heavy in comparison. Obviously the buil differences make up for most of the weight/swing weight difference but the softer overal flex made them less lucky and they had less pop. Overall I was not really impressed. A smaller guy may like them better but then weight would be even more an issue.
Other skis I woul look at are the sick days, whitedot preacher, atomic automatic and the salomon rockers.
