Hey all, I'm trying to make the decision on my first pair of skis and I'm finding it harder than I thought! I've been skiing for about 8 years but just never invested in my own pair and I'm so excited to finally be able to. I narrowed it down to these pairs:
2014 K2 Superbright 90
2015 Rossignol Temptation 84 (or 88)
2015 Volkl Yumi
I consider myself intermediate-advanced: I can ski harder slopes but prefer to take it easy and relaxed and really enjoy my time going down the mountain. I basically just want skis that will be FUN to ride, but that also aren't just for beginners, like the rentals I've always used. On the other hand, I don't want a pair that would be for experts, as some of the skis I looked at said they were (should I be concerned about the K2's for that reason?). I mainly ski on groomed slopes (East Coast), but would like a pair of skis that can be good on powder as well if I take them out West, hence the reason why I've got my sights set on all-mountain skis. If anyone can give me more insight on any of these skis it would be much appreciated!!
