Hello all:
This year I am hoping to progress my carving - high angle skiing. Two years ago I went to Bachelor with my oldest son and borrowed a friends Rossi Pursuit ski (the 800 HPI ---I think). Skiing corn snow with that ski was a bit of a revelation! Since then I have been looking to get...

Drahtguy Kevin: (from last year) This K2 offering is easier to ski than a race-oriented slalom ski. Turn initiation is a tad slower and the ski isn’t as quick across the fall...
Many of us have champagne tastes and beer budgets. It is nothing to be ashamed of; sometimes there are limitations in the budget, and trust me, we don’t judge. Don’t fret, hold your head high, because we are going to show you some great options to some of the popular premium models from each...
