    Suggestions for a narrow carving ski for slalom and giant slalom gate training?

    My local mountain at Vancouver, BC is offering a advanced class for slalom and giant slalom gate training. I'm looking to learn to carve and figured this could be a great class to learn. My current ski is the BP 88 so I'm looking for something more narrow, perhaps around low 70 width? I'm 5'2.5"...

    Carving Skis

    Hello! I’m an Ohio skier looking for my first pair of skis that would be intended for short turn carving on groomers. As you can guess, we do what we can in Ohio so have very short runs with a lot of manmade snow. We do a trip to a bigger resort in the east or out west once a year but I’m...

    I need a ski for eastern groomers

    I mostly ski off-piste and my quiver reflects that. I have a pair of Volkl Auras and a pair of Rossi S7s. I loved my Line Prophets for all conditions and when they died (after about 200 days, actually the bindings broke) and I replaced them with the Auras. I find the Auras don't carve very well...
