Replying to Playful/jibby powder skis
I've been putting off getting a new powder ski for awhile now and i've got to commit to something soon.
Theres so many options out there im getting a bit lost.
I've had EP pro's and hellbents, and really like the feel of big rocker/flat underfoot. i've skiied some newer dual camber and mellow rocker skis and they just dont have the same surfey, poppy feel ep's or hellbents had. Ive skiied some dual camber, and mellow rocker skis and they just dont do it for me. im not looking for a 120+ waist ski that carves groomers well, or behaves like that in powder. i want a bouncy, poppy, slashy, loose, ski.
I liked my ep pro's flex even though they were complete noodles, so im ok with a soft ski, but wouldnt mind something with a little more support.
I've been looking at the volkl 2 and 3, surface lab001 (can get cheap) new bentchetler, shreditor 120 and 136, RMU professor, icelantic gypsy, 4frnt yle, and probably more i cant think of right now. too many options and i want to at least narrow them down.
any advice?
