skiboards.
calling them snowblades is like calling park skis "trick skis"

Snowblade is a brand name of salomon, and they are no longer in production.

Skiboard is the proper name.
And there are a lot of good skiers who learned on skiboards before newschool skiing took over.

So have a bit of respect.

Snowblader spotted.

Suspects or afterbangs are the same ski. Like someone else said, take whatever one you like more, it won't make any bit of difference.

Well those two are equally crappy on anything difficult, so if you actually want to ski Vail properly I would demo.

it really doesn't snow that much here, 5 or 6" and park skis are fun as shit. either one will be fine. All the guys suggesting huge fancy skis don't even know.

It's not about float, it's about the ski folding over like a bitch when you give it hell on steep terrain. It's also about center mounted skis not being so awesome on a techy line.

Center mounted skis are even easier to billy goat around on. As far as folding over, flow more force less. Whatever tho, if you like some stiff skis great.

Just go to one of the ski shops (not just a rental shop)at the bottom of the mountain or in town, and ask them if they have any powder skis you can demo.
