Hi, guys!
I've already broke my head trying to choose the pair to my 80-mm salomon for funny 40/60 (piste/off-piste) riding, maybe you can help me
I'm 180cm (5'10-5'11) and 75kg intermediate skiier, don't want burly ski for hard charging all the time (so not looking at something like Cochise), but want to have an opportunity work agressively on piste and have fun time off with good float. Prefer playful, maneuverable and well controlled skis over super stable (if we speak about such trade-offs).
Trying to search Holy Grail finished with 3 ski (I can't test them, so it's just blind choice) and all of them have some compromises (all in 180-184 height):
1) Head Kore 105 - I've read, that they are not the best in terms of quality and durability, but looks like it will be ok
2) Kastle BMX 105 (non-HP) - looks like it's pretty hard charging ski with pretty big weight for me (2.14kg per ski) and I'm not sure about it's playfullness (for example, is it ok for bumb-jumping or something like that)?
3) Moment Deathwish - I was looking for good hardpack abilities, so 112mm waist can be really overkill on firm groomers... But so many people say, that they are pretty versitale
I will buy one of this in the end of this week just because I'm sooo tired of reading all these reveiws, so I hope, you will help me
Thanks in advance!
