Overall Impression
Tested Length Felt:
Just Right
Ski Sidecut Felt:
Just Right
Ski Flex Felt:
The flex was nearly perfect, but I like a stiff ski so I would have liked it to be a touch stiffer, though not as stiff as its unisex counterpart the Titan Cronus.
Best Described As:
Balanced
Notes: Eos was the Titanic Goddess of Dawn, who rose from her home to herald the sun(Eos brother Helios).
That is the feel you get from these skis. Like you are rising to a new day and ready to embrace the sun, while you conquer the slopes.

I skied these in Michigan on slop and also on some marginally soft groomers prior to taking them to ESA Stowe, where I skied them on some sweeeet powder.
I'm not an accomplished powder skier, but felt very comfortable seizing the opportunity to follow Epic and Whiteroom, along with the other Divas at Stowe.
These skis are performance oriented, and confidence building. Enough so that I did a few small drops without hesitation.
After all, Wendy would do it!
