WHAT TYPE(S) OF SKIER DO YOU IMAGINE WILL GET ALONG BEST WITH THIS SKI?

Skiers who enjoy a playful ski that’s great on most mountain conditions.

ARE THERE SIMILAR PRODUCTS YOU’VE SKIED THAT YOU CLEARLY PREFER? IF SO, WHY?

I prefer a more directional ski, such as the Folsom Cash 106 or the Salomon Stella 106 and they are a little more directional for charging on the slopes.

PLEASE ELABORATE ON ANYTHING ELSE YOU’D LIKE TO SAY ABOUT THIS SKI. FEEL FREE TO GO INTO DETAIL!

I felt like there was too much ski behind me that was difficult to navigate in steeper trees.
