What are some rockered/cambered pow skis similar to the Rocker 2's? I demoed them today and I loved how they ski in some fresh, on hard packed and everything. Its just a little too wide. Something that is in between 110 and 120 underfoot.

Well i think salomon rocker 2 are like 122mm ?

192 cm 144-122-134
184 cm 142-122-132
180 cm 139-115-129
170 cm 137-115-127

Just buy the 180 cm, it will be 115mm underfoot, which is perfect

Remove the Billy Goat, they're way more directional.

soft tips and tails, more solid underfoot. Def more beefy than an EP/Bent/BentC

The rocker 2's are pretty awsome, I have been riding mine since december. I ride them pretty much every where park, powder, piste. To me it does not seem too wide, but maybe if you dont live in big mountains it may be a bit overkill. There is talk of a slightly narower rocker 2 but it wont be untill 12/13 season so I guess that may be too long to wait.
