After spending WAY too many hours researching, I need to get advice from the community.
I am an advanced skier who is 6' 0" and 170 lbs. I currently own some J MasterBlasters in a 175. They are a very good ski. The only area where they do not excel is in the bumps. They are pretty heavy and pretty darn stout, and they don't seem to love being in the moguls. I ski mostly on-piste, on black diamond runs, so I wind up being in the moguls A LOT. I want to get a ski that is more mogul friendly, but one that can ski the whole resort. I also want to get something a little lighter. The MasterBlaster is 2160 grams per ski.
I have looked at Hart and some of the other pure-mogul skis, and the super-narrow width worries me a little. These skis have widths of 66 to 75 mm, so they are probably awesome in mogul fields but bad everywhere else. I am think that a width of 75 to 90 max should be right. Feel free to correct me.
Does anybody have any recommendations for a lighter, mogul friendly ski that is about that that handles moguls great? One that can be skied on the whole mountain, but excels in moguls? Thanks in advance for any advice!!!!!
