One advantage we have here is familiarity. If you are active on the site and go to some of the gatherings, we all get to meet and ski with each other and then better relate. @ski-ra is a great example, I have been skiing with him for years, i just know how he skis and what he likes in a ski, Its not rocket science. When I am testing a ski, I am always thinking what that ski likes to do or how it prefers to be skied or what it feels like to me. The other pubs dont offer that.
There is a lot of truth to not just latching onto a review from someone who the same relative height and weight, its more about how that person skis, where they ski and what they value. I am not a racer so I seriously doubt someone like @HeluvaSkier is ever going to value or relate to what I like in a ski.
this is a great thread
