Awesome All-Round BC Ski!
I spent quite a bit of time consulting a lot of people, including many
of you and reading many different reviews when looking for a pair of new skis. I needed something that would work on old roads and trails, in deep powder with a pack, uphill and downhill at high elevations. I've always waxed but found that difficult here at elevation on many days for a variety of reasons due to weather, thaw, freeze, wind, etc. I tried several skis but long story short...I was told to steer away from Alpinas because while they were good climbers, they are also considered slow, etc. I love 'em! I go straight up hills in both tracks and fresh snow. I have plenty of speed through the trees and down slopes with and without a pack. Don't be afraid to try 'em out! The price was very reasonable, dang near cheap. So far, they've worked well for me in every situation that I've put them in. I'm a 175 lb agressive skier. I matched them with Rott. BC auto-bindings and Alpina 1550 boots. They've brought a lot of fun back to BC skiing for me. Thanks! |
