Hi all
I am looking at purchasing my first pair of skis. I was recommended Blizzard Black Pearl 88 while I was getting some new boots fitted (yay!). The shop had 2018 model on sale for $399. I am wondering if there has been much change between the 2018 and newer models. I was also recommended the Volkl Yumi. I am 5'9" and 130lbs. I am on the beginner side of intermediate and would love to get a pair of skis to grow with me. I am generally on blues or milder black, and I recently started messing with moguls. I mostly ski in CO but take trips to Utah and NM. Any input or advice would be appreciated! Thx!
