Hey ladies!

The time has finally come to upgrade my set ups (it's been a nice 5 seasons on this quiver but damn)...
Finally think I have it narrowed down between the TST w's and Hoji w's. Spend more time hiking these days, so I need something all around that I can strap techs to ;)

Anyone out there ski on Hoji w's that can vouch?

Yiew!

I ski on the hoji's not the hoji w, but i LOVE THEM!! They are so surfy and slashy, and feel solid underfoot. I use them as my touring ski,jsut know a full rocker has a little learning curve to it, otherwise i love it. I have dynafit ft10's on them.

I haven't tried either but def don't be scared to try out men's skis!! I switched and will likely never go back to womens.... (no hate I promise, things work differently for everyone!). They've just suited me sooo much better than all of my womens models.

I have a couple pairs of Hoji W's. They're great for touring with a tech binding! The only place I've seen other girls riding those skis are at big mountain comps. And big mountain or soft snow is where they really excel. I'll be selling a pair of 171's with skins closer to the beginning of Canada's season

Aw sweet, thank you gals for the feedback, I will try and demo some of the men's skis too. I do drive pretty heavy from my hips, but I mean I haven't ridden another ski outside of my own in a long ass time.

Sweet dude! Give me a shout when you decide to sell if you're still at the Lake / in the area. I'm in the East Koots, so I'm over that way a whole lot.
