today we skied on 10" of light (not blower) powder which was really nice to not hear my skis I finally felt the trees had enough cover so after a couple of warm-ups on open stuff I headed into the trees: Aspens and evergreens. The Ski did a remarkable job of having a nice balance of float and precision, you could certainly trust the ski to not get tossed around in the cut-up trees and yet it was nimble and easy, weaving through the terrain. The 95 responds very well to input and the softish tip absorb troughs so well. I found the ski rather flickable. Its more of a precision feel than surfy but you could easily release the edges and drift. Really loved how once you got back onto the open you could lay the ski on edge and really arc em.
side note: my LSS has been playing around with a 2:2 tune for wider skis on soft snow, I was skeptical but this tune is really nice. it allows the edges to release very smoothly and this is noticeable in the bumps and trees but they engage very well when you are in the open and want to arc the ski. Give it a try.
