re: which skis

What level of skiing are you at currently and do you see yourself pushing yourself and progressing further with your skiing??

The trick is to buy a pair of ski's that would be good for your current level of skiing plus allowing you room to further develop your skill level without being defficient at either level.

If you are currently a good intermediate to advanced skier than I can definitely recommend the K2 Apache Recons as they have superb stability whilst doing high speed turns on ...

re: which skis

hi ive skied the salomon x wing tornados at the snowdome they are very good for short shap turns and a lot of fun on the down side a bit soft at the tip i personally would recomend trying the K2 crossfires really good for carving turns and the latest model has a sidewall for extra grip on hard/ice. hope this helps

re: which skis

i'm planning to buy either Rossignol Radical 9S or Salomon Equipe 3V's. I know someone who works for Ellis Brigham who was away on their test 'holiday' and said the Fischer Progressor 8+ is an amazing ski. I'm going to demo them before i buy one of the above Very Happy

re: which skis

really depends on what you want to do with them and what you skill level is. I've just bought some Rossignol Bandit B78s because I want an all mountain ski that is also stable at speed for an expert/upper intermediate level. If you want to be doing, for example, primarily high speed on piste carving, you'll need more of a race ski. of course, now I just need some snow to test them.....
