Anyone have thoughts on skis that will stay either at near surface or at a constant depth? Is there such a thing? Or, such a way to ski deep powder?
Interesting concept. Turning 3D snow into 2D snow like on the groomers.

For turn-at-each bump in a mogul field, I tend to tuck my feet under to get an early turn with tip engagement. Visualizing that, I'm wondering if, in powder, I'll run into a problem with aforementioned submarining
pretty tough getting a ski over 110-115 to submarine
3D snow.
There are segments in which the skier is not coming up to the surface at all. No propoising at all. The turns all happen below surface. I'm thinking either narrowing skis or a mastery of technique.
3D snow can be skied better with a 3D turn.
On your video, slow motion the series of turns from 1:30 to 1:38 and follow the arc of the travel
Try a ski like the Armada JJ or a similar 5 point shape. Ski them centred and as if you were skiing on a groomer and see how they go.
Why does your son ski on a women's length SL ski?
...and don't think we have yet established whether the OP has really explored the parameters of what it feels like to ski powder centred.

I have a 151 fis womens sl and weight 190. I used it for instruction & training drills. Bonus it is a chore in wet deep snow.
I haven't skied a fat ski that I can't ski tip to tail (arc vs. slarve) in powder
It probably best illustrate the path a "carving" skis would take under the snow

WHEN will LIne make this in a longer model?!
...it (Line Pescado) sure makes for a satisfying turn feel and finish in particular.
