Just got home from Midnight Madness at Crotched Mountain, so a little quickie:
It took a few turns, but I'm definitely in love! On my first run down I managed to cross my tips a little and take spill. It's definitely a challenge getting used to these coming off my Olins that are narrower in every way. But boy, once I did! I didn't get a lot of messy snow play since the "glades" (trails with a couple trees in them) were not well lit. However, I did get to rip down the groomers and pop a few side of the trail jumps. Yep, these are quite stiff, but not bothersome to me. I was ripping turns like I never have before. I truly felt like I jumped up a level of skiing in these, carving like nobody's business. Again, no sloppy bumps to try out or anything, but I'm sure I'll be just as happy.
:D:D
off to bed!
That's so exciting to hear! There must of been a grin on your face a yard wide I can imagine the stress level in your anticipation of the test ride and bet you feel more relaxed now. I know mine has plummeted just hearing about your experience and I don't even know how you ski in comparison to me or what you really like in performance. I know everyone is different but it sounds like we look for a similar ride. I'll be sure to keep you posted on my first ski on that Tierra, hopefully soon! For tomorrow, I've picked up a demo, Rossingnol, Zenith, Z5. Should be an interesting comparison.
