Need suggestion for new skis.
located in the east coast Ontario area. advanced skier (can do most double black without any issues), 155lb and 5'11. Currently have 2018 K2 pinnacle 88 but would like to get new skis that do it all for all snow conditions in the east. Consider mainly Enforce 88 in 179, Kendo 88 in 177 and brahma 88 in 180. Spent 90/10 on/off piste, trees and moguls, and mainly on groom or hardpack. probably go to big mountains twice a year in either Vermont or West coast. Looking for stable but fun carving turn. Not a park guy.
Demoed 3 three skis a couple of weeks ago in blue.
1. 2019 Brahma 88 in 180 --- Very powerful, stable and energetic, can feel a lot rebound from the ski.
2. 2020 Volkl deacon 84 in 172 --- similar feeling to brahma, but a little bit expensive. Not very cost-effective
3. Rossignol 88 in 180 --- feels okay, not too much different than my current K2
Currently leaning toward brahma 88 more. Any suggestions are welcome!
