Was wondering if this is a good skii. Looking for a descent fatski that is mostly usable in powder, but doesn't mind taking a trip into the groomed slopes. Have been looking on Rossignol XXX, but sadly these skiis are impoosible too get new in my part of the world. So my eyes have fallen onto this model of K2's. Thoughts anyone? Is it worth the money?

Im not sure about the AK Launcher, but if your looking for a decent fat ski, try the Rossi B2. Its plenty wide underfoot for nice floatation in powder, and can also rip turns on the groomes no problem. Definitely a sweet ski, I'd recommend that, but i havent heard too much about the Axis Ak's. Godd luck finding a ski, Ride on.

I just bought a pair of Elan Mantis 777's. I can't wait to turn those fuckers loose. Hate on Elan all you want, they got rave reviews this year and last.
