I've been wanting pow skis for awhile, and found 2015 bubbas for 320. Live in Colorado so they would be put to good use. Somebody talk me in/out of this.

The bubba is a quiver ski, I don't think it's even versatile enough to be classified as a powder ski.

I actually found the Bubba to be very versatile for its width. Slays deep powder, but also handles all mountain OK. I knew an older euro family man that daily drove them in Jackson one year lol.

Skis like a bigger, damper JJ honestly.

For $320 I say buy them

The pintail sidecut is weird af, I wouldn't take them anywhere but untracked powder.

Neither would I, but I found them more versatile than Moment Night Trains, or ARGs.

Arg is almost full reverse/reverse while the Bubba is just a super fat Magic J
