Just wondering if someone could make the decision for me.
Kastle ZX 100, or Atomic Bent 100.
West Coast Skier, been skiing for 40 years. Still typically ski 40-50 mph on the groomers. Love moguls and trees as well. Don't send as many chutes as i used to, but a couple a year at Kirkwood if it looks right.
Both of these skies look fun.
I am currently on some older ARV 96 as well as K2 mindbender 108Ti.
A little help???

Check out the armada stranger. I think you'd enjoy it quite a lot.

I had some Kastle ZX108’s a couple years ago and they railed groomers but I didn’t like them off-piste. I prefer rockered tails, and I felt the Kastles have stiffer flatter tails and got bounced around in the crud, didn’t really drive. I think the Atomic 100 will ski a lot more like an all mountain ski where the Kastle will be more of a carver.

just my two cents

What a fake fucking account. You're not even trying to hide it.

lol, bentchetler should NOT be on your list. As someone else already said blackops 98 is really good. Rails groomers great and eats chunder for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Another option is the Nordica unleashed 98. Quite a bit lighter and more directional but carves like a beast. Loads of fun. I’m done pooping now.

WTH? This is not a fake account. I am a real dude.

I have a ski tracker app that shows my ave speed at about 42mph some runs in the 30s if I am cruising and an occasional 50 (but not as often anymore since I am getting older and dislocated a rib going that fast and catching an edge)
I just came on here since I thought it would be fun to hear other people's though and I get your dick comment??? I guess I know what L"" are all about

dw about him, he’s still mad he lost his job for being racist online.

enforcer could be the move, rossi sender 94 is another ski i like, ripstick black 94 is a classic dad choice.

hahahahaha dude, stop. I get it, you want your character to be the "immature old gaper who thinks he's a rad expert skier, bragging about how fast he goes on whatever shitty apps he's obsessed with" but its too on the nose. Take it from a fellow troll, less is more.
