I just bought these for a really good deal. It seems to be a pretty good ski and I read the blister review on it. But I wanted to get more opinions. This will be a powder ski for Utah. The only other option Im considering is the Billy Goat 118.

Are you actually thinking about buying another set of pow skis?

Friggin love em. Has that super damp and composed charging quality but with a very nimble and fun feel. I use em as an everyday ski when conditions are good mid winter.

How does it do in the chopped up powder/ afternoon bumps? Ive read that due to its lighter weight, it gets thrown around a lot compared to heavier powder skis.

This is a great powder ski an will be tons of fun. It's the ski of choice for a large majority of the K2 team unless the skier is on the Reckoner 122/112. I think it will be perfect for Utah.

It has a longer nose and more traditional mount that the Reckoner series. If you aren't looking to do anything switch on it, it will be perfect.
