Don’t post much on here but read a lot. Been skiing for 4 years on my first pair of skis Rossi E84s, int/adv level. 5’9” 170. Moving to PNW. Baker will be an hour away.
Looking to dump the 84s for something more suitable for powder and heavy snow. I prefer side country and trees over groomers and hard pack.
Just demoed Enforcer 100s at 185 (all they had) at winter park. Charged great on all the runs but when I took them into trees or moguls they completely sucked and wished I had my E84s. Whether it was the ski or my ability they weren’t a good fit.
Looking at:
Kartel 108
K2 marksman
Volkl 90eight
Salomon Qst 99 or 106.
There are so many generic BS reviews on every sky that I can’t figure out which way to go. I’m leaning Kartel but Blister shows the Kartel being even more stiff than the enforcer and almost as heavy.
