Yes, that's what I mean with depth-measurements too. Did you try these
modern skis btw?


No. I don't feel the need to fix what's not broken.


Come on! Lost the will to explore already? They will allow you to do
different thinks, for example to go much faster in powder, not
necessarily your cup of tea though..

Good for you! I'm a 9 hours drive away from 7000+ vertical-feet off-
piste paradise. Skiing powder in the forest is mad fun but nothing
beats the big lines on big mountains. I've seen boarders lose maybe
1500 feet of vertical in about five turns down a steepish glacier. Has
anyone skied Alta in less than 10 turns?-D


Beginners probably.


Really? Your beginners shred at 50mph+?

That kind of thing happens to people that can't turn usually. I can
push a dog on skis straight down a hill. No particular skill involved
there.


Going fast takes an enormous amount of balls and considerable skill
too.
