Hi guys,

I just need some help with very short answers.

I am to go between:

Line OPUS

Line Sick day 125

Armada magic J

and VOLK Shiro

If you where me and have a mountain that produces around good 10-15 days of powder in 4 months of skiing that we do, what would you choose.

I am intermediate to advance skier with 5-10 meters drops, tree skiing, and yes on not powder days groomers.

What would you chose.

thanks a milion

I'd concider getting the Armada JJ, it's alot more versatile than the magic J and it's still a great pow ski

Is this a pure pow ski or a daily driver?

Skied all of them. Shiro and Sick Day were too stiff for me. Always loved Opus, so easy to ski on it. Ended up buying Magic J. It was my favourite ski of the test. Easy short turns and reduced weight that's what I loved about Armada's.

We can chime in on the Line choices there. If you like to play around the mountain and go backwards in the powder .. do the Opus (or Magnum Opus) and if you're more of a directional skier who don't go backwards (on purpose) consider the big, light and nimble Sick Day 125. THANKS!
