Hi. Anybody ever ski one of these? I’m considering a pair. I mainly ski east coast hard pack, groomed steeps, narrow trails tight turns.
Would these be good for me. I’m an advanced skier no park no powder on piste only. Thanks

As an East coast skier these skis worked great for me. They were the first pair of skis that I owned and used them when I was more of an itermediate skier, but I did enjoy using them. Great for downhill and everything else you are looking for.

Thanks for that. So what would you ski if you are advanced with those same conditions I ski.

If you're piste-only, I'd recommend checking out the Head Supershape i.Titan and K2 Ikonic 84 Ti. Also a few other options listed in the "Frontside" section in this guide.
