Replying to Pow skis for PNW?
Whats up NS? As christmas is approaching, I may have convinced my grandma to get me some new powder skis as theres a good chance I'm going away for college where theres lots of new snow. I have Kartel 106 right now so if i get a pow ski I'm not gonna get anything less than 114 mm underfoot.
So I have owned the 4frnt YLE and been on the ON3P Jeffery enough to know how they work, and I loved them both, but I want to keep my options open. I want to be able to ski wet, heavy pow, charge, be stable but playful, bust crud, and hold an edge if possible. IM looking for something semi bi directional but I'm including some directional chargers as well.
Right now I'm almost 5'8 and 135 pounds but I will probably grow a few more inches and putting on weight is up to me, but I'm working on that.
Some new skis I've considered are: (waist widths off to the side.
-Line Mordecai (114)
-Revision Subtraction (116)
- 4FRNT KYE 120 (118 in my size)
-4FNT YLE (118)
- ON3P Billy Goat (116)
-ON3P Jeffery 114
-Caravan Zepher (116)
-Atomic Bent Chet (120)
-Salomon Rocker 2 122 (115 in my size)
So NS, which ski would you recommend? I'm open to some suggestions but would like to stick to these. The Bent Chets and Mordecais really tickle my fancy.
