Well, if
people have trouble dealing with other people's tracks in powder they

Or just learn how to ski. Dancing in the chop is fun. Last year I used
15 year old Snow Rangers I found leaning on a wall here in Truckee.
Excellent skis for chop and powder (and junk and cement.)

I can ski, but having to steer the stiff normal-camber ski through
crappy variable snow is goddamned hard work! I've tried rockered skis
and with those I can just coast through the turn since the rockered
parts of the ski are already bent in the right direction - I can
confidently ski a lot faster - JIIIHHAA!! And for the record, I'll
never stop hip-angulating. I urge everyone to try these things before
condemning them, they make everyone a better skier no matter what's
the starting level.
