20 years ago could you ski powder? Well fuji's are super fat compared to then, just puting it into perspective.

by today's standards, you'll actually sink with anything under 100mm and they don't even let you on the lift on heavy powder days if you have the wrong skis.










todays standards don't matter; if you could ski powder 20 years ago with 60-65mm skis, an 80 waist is gona do fine. Powder hasn't changed much.

I've skied fujis and they're a bit soft for me (215 lbs at the time) and they carved fine; with 70 lbs on you, you won't be flexin them to noodles unless you're skiing super super hard.

uhh depends what size u get, but yes youre light they should be able to handle a groomer just fine, i dont klnow if they would be the best for ice or really heavy crud or anything, but most skis will handle a groomer just fine, if a ski cant even ski a groomer than what can it ski

Pollards team skis..150 underfoot. Those would be hard to ski on groomers.
