This event rocks. Skiing the best conditions in washingon right now on 2010-2011 skis from the best in the industry. I am personally stoked on the Atomic Blog 177 and the Blizzard Answer today.
Atomic Blog 177 - Great in deep, carves fantastic. I usually ski a 186 but the 177 was super at speed. the reverse camber was what was needed not to go ass over teakettle in the pow.
Blizzard Answer 184- Wow, with a 28 m radius @186 I thought it wouldnt turn. That was a misnomer...ripped it all solid from hardpack to bumps and of course POW.
Volkl! We will be stocking skis from Volkl next year, and they are continuing to manufacture some of the best and innovative skis in the industry.
Volkl Bridge. WOW. With the skis getting fatter and fatter, it is good to see technology (early rise tip and tail) help a relatively narrow ski (92 mm in waist) just shred the deep pow. About 1' of fresh wind packed was effortless. Fantastic on the icy bumps as well. A great one quiver ski.
Tomorrow K2 and maybe Rossi? Head as well. Stay tuned for the reviews.
