👋
Would love to get the communities input on a solid pick for a tree ski for deep power days.
I’m really after playful (softer?) skis with a easier turn initiation. I own both the Fisher Ranger 115FR and Nordica Enforcer 110’s. Both perform great for me in open bowls. But….I would like to find something a bit more forgiving.
I’m considering the following
Line Outline or SFB
K2 Reckoner 112
Atomic BC 120, 110 or Backland 117
Amada ARV 116 JJ or 106
I’m open to suggestions on any other ski.

About Me: 5’8ish 165lb Advanced Skier
Boots: Techica Cochise 120 and Mach 1 130
Home Mtn: Mt. Bachelor
Other skis in my quiver:
Nordica Soul Rider 97 177cm
Fischer Ranger 102 177cm
Many others collecting dust

Honestly this, they're a blast. I've been ripping them thru the trees in WF a bunch this year and might have to actually buy them instead of snagging demos.

Woodsman's aren't gonna feel more forgiving than what you've got by much. The Chettys would probably be a good call.

Line Outline, Line Vision 118, Atomic BC120, and Armada ARV 116 JJ UL come to mind.
