I am 6’ 180 lbs. Been skiing and snowboarding hard most of my life. Mostly snowboarding, but because of my ski race background as a kid I am able to keep up with, and outperform some of my western homies that I ski with during my Utah days. I’m looking for a ski that is playful but can hold up at speed. I moved from Utah to North Carolina and all my skis are 115+ underfoot. I didn’t ski much park in Utah mainly up at Alta and the bird, hence the wider skis. My new home mountain will be either Sugar or Cataloochee, and if I decide to ski them instead of snowboard I will need a proper setup. I imagine due to the size of these NC hills I would like a ski that I can butter around on and hit small side hits so I don’t get bored just carving down the 1000’ vert all day. But I also want the ability to hold an edge and handle ice and fake snow. I appreciate your advice.
Thanks
