Replying to Sidecountry touring pow skis. Which to get?
Alright guys, I have a pair of Marker Barons coming in the mail, but no skis to mount them on yet.
I wanted to use my 2015 Faction Candide 3.0 but they already have been drilled twice for regular bindings (Look PX and Tyrolia Attack) and I feel like adding another 8 holes in them would start to push it and play with their integrity (obviously I could be wrong and this would be the cheapest option as I would just have to add QK/BF inserts).
I'm looking for a pair of powder skis to get some inbound powder, no crazy hours long backcountry touring. Weight isn't necessarily an issue here.
Any idea of what I should get in the 105-120ish range? Keep in mind that I live in Europe and would prefer to buy them used if I could. So forget brands like ON3P, JSkis, etc. (very hard to come by here on the used market...)
So far I have my eyes on some Bent Chetler, Armada JJ, Amplid Hellbent, Line Mordecai, Line Magnum Opus. All used.
Or should I just say fuck it and drill the Factions again?
