150cm Dynastars rule!

WAYYY easier to manage. I got totally wiped out at about the same time,
but was NOT wiped out for a lot longer than with my longer heavier skis.

Lovely day at Snow Summit. Nice snow (what there was of it) until it
started getting crowded and it started to get soft around noon.

I guess that has to hold me until Jan 7 when my season pass is good again.

What kind of Dynastars? I have two pair of them, and they're about as
different as two skis can be.

For "normal" snow (i.e. squashed by the groomers so it's hard as a rock)
there's the Course Ti which has so much edge grip it's scary - you have
to work really hard to get them to slide sideways.

For soft snow there's the Legend Sultan 85 which is very easy to slarve
around - won't hold an edge for crap on normal snow, but will carve if
you want it to as long as the snow is a bit soft.

Max 9 of uncertain age. Pretty red-orange/white stripes. $2 virgins
with recalled bindings. Best bargain in skis so far. I'm pretty
insensitive when it comes to skis -- length seems to be the only
perceived difference.

You mean the GOOD kind of snow!

I don't have difficulty going straight or turning ever, the muscles just
give out every minute or so :-(
