@SBrown -- YES! agreed 100%
hmm, Kore 93 vs Pinnacle 95.... whadarya' looking for in a ski? The Pinnacle was great! more serious than the Kore, more stable AND more fun. Loved the new 95.
Hopefully Phill will chime in with his experiences, but 3 or 4 of us in these parts have been finding the Kore(s) (93 and 105... haven't skied the 117) both come to life at -1 ~ -1.5. IMHO, the pinnacle 95 is a very nice OSQ, the Kore more of a complementary ski to a daily driver like a Monster 88.
