Good point. What's the point of having favorite skis that you're afraid
to use?


My thoughts exactly. To a point.

I wouldn't take my best skis to go and do some packing/sidestepping where I
knew I would be walking on rocks.

On the other hand, I would take them where I knoew I'd be walking on rocks
with the promise (or hope) of fun turns to be had.
