I'm trying to decide on some pow skis for next season. I am 5'7, aggressive skier, and looking for a ski that can handle everything from deep pow to cliffs and backcountry jumps. I'm thinking about Moment Night Trains, Hellbents, or Chopsticks. I would just like some opinions


+k for anyone who helps

if your not going to be skiing chopped up pow and crud then i'd say hellbents, and if you are, caylors or chopsticks, maybe.

if your an agressive skier you may find the affermentioned skis a bit soft, look into something with a medium to stiffer flex, maybe some live lifes, comis, seths, or ehps,

search for those maybe and find what best suits you riding syle etc

I love my boone glo stick, they kill it in everything, from groomers to deep deep pow.  And the graphics are sick as fuck.

No need to be a dick. He posted it in the right forum about what skis would be suitable for him, and would probably want to hear people's experiences with those skis. Not some asshole posting stupid shit in his thread.

I'm going with next year's SFBs. Enough cut to still have fun on grooms otw to the trees, floats with 115 underfoot, rockered with...27.5cm x 15mm? I think? Don't quote me. Look pretty sick I'm looking forward to getting mine later  this summer!
