I've been feeling the desire to pick up a dedicated hard snow ski for next season. After talking with @Tony S at the NE Gathering about the benefits of a slalom ski I’m looking to pick up something around 70mm underfoot to complete the quiver (MX88, FX94, BMX105). I used to have a pair of Fischer Progressor 9+ that I loved on hard snow and nothing else. Unfortunately I sold them many years ago.
I’ve been thinking of trying Stockli instead of defaulting to my standard Kastle obsession. I’m interested in the Laser CS, Laser CX and Laser SL. I’m open to other suggestions for a slalom ski if people have one. I've demo'd Blizzard, Atomic and Volkl carvers in the past but it was so long ago that my thoughts on those aren't relevant anymore.
I know it’s late in the season to be trying to demo a hard snow ski but I usually buy my skis at the end of the season or summer so being able to demo now may allow me to save some cash. I think Northern Ski Works demos Stockli and will call them but does anyone know of others?
