Pros:
I love these skis and am very happy with this purchase. They've worked well in all conditions so far.
Cons:
Not many. A little more effort to turn with the wider waist. But makes up for it with stability at speed.
Would you recommend this product to a friend?
Yes
I love these skis. I demoed them and then sought them out over the summer to find them at a lower price. I am an intermediate/advanced skier, 44 years old, 5'2" tall, and weigh 135 pounds. I started skiing as a child but didn't ski at all from age 18 until 36. I usually get in between 5-10 days of skiing each winter, with this winter hovering closer to 20 days so far. I selected the 152cm length. I prefer to ski on blue squares or groomed blacks and try to avoid moguls. I will say I inadvertently went down some giant mogul runs at Park City, and these skis handled it. I really feel like these skis have made me a better skier. I have skied Park City, UT, Heavenly & Northstar in Lake Tahoe. In the warmer, slushy/icy conditions, these skis have been functional. I was also considering the Blizzard Black Pearl.
