Ladies,
I've got Vokl Fuego's (151's, I'm 5' 160lbs) and I absolutely love them. Skied steamboat last year (packed power mostly front side conditions) and I really hated the two different demo ski's I had the opportunity to try.
I'm a super fast skier, and like a ski I can ride on the cruisers and drive in quicker turns on the steeps and moguls. I've been finding lately that I've been "muscling" my ski more than I should need to.
So here's the question -- should I haul my ski's out with me, or find a better ski to demo?
Here in the east, I love the speed and stability of this ski. Love the edge grip. I need a ski that will be super fast for the time in Steamboat, but not sure if the Fuego is the way to go.
And, if I were to demo a ski, what would you all recommend? First and foremost needs to be fast, and stable. Do need a bit of snap for the occasional moguls and more challenging terrain, but mostly just concerned about getting something that is as close to a racing ski as I can get and still be ready for colorado snow.
Length? longer or shorter with the switch from east to west?
Thoughts?
Thanks so much for the advice!
