Peep our redesigned Vacation! The Vacation is 104mm underfoot with camber giving you that extra float in pow while still giving you pop. The tip and tail features early taper making the ski feel extra surfy and buttery. Combine all of these factors with a playful yet consistent flex pattern and you have our redesigned Vacation! BTW..this playful and consistent flex pattern makes the vacation absolute beast when it comes to buttering, catching tranny and jibbing all over the hill.

I loved the old Bacon, the old K2 Shreditor 102 could be an option too. Those things were super rockered and super playful/soft. I haven't skied the Wide yet but will be getting them in the next couple of weeks to do a Roofbox Review so I might be able to give you a closer comparison then.

Yeah, it's been a few years since they made the Shreditors. They got replaced with the Marksman which is a very different ski sadly.

Funny enough, I think the nomad 105s would do you a bit better. They are soft so they feel super buttery but that little bit of camber underfoot gives them pop. A fully rockered ski wont have that aspect to it and thus you'll suffer a bit when trying to ollie or pop when buttering. I have owned both the 105 and the Gypsy SKNY and selling the 105 is my biggest regret just because of how perfect they were as a solid daily ski.

I wish they had a Tip/underfoot/Tail Rocker Index like on Icelantic but for every ski so it's easier to compare. I'm currently riding poachers but find them a bit too heavy and too much camber and not wide enough. I'm looking for options for when they give out so the 105 nomad should be perfect if its only got a bit of camber
