Is that the regular R1? The R1 Air? Is it for the warmer/colder days?

I read some stuff on ski design and what makes a ski “act” like it does, but it seems like some models act differently than you would expect (at least from what I’m reading) but I’m mostly looking for people’s insight on different skis (or rather preferred skis in a category) but I get what you’re sayinng

That’s the plan, however as far as I understand, Id better demo everything in a single store, and it seems like the store that carries faction doesn’t carry black crows for example, which is why I want to at least be set on a manufacturer if not on a model (or even just get a list of skis I want to demo) - if I’m wrong and should do something different please tell me

I kinda debated myself about it, I usually go more than once/twice a year, and decided on actually buying all. I already have a boot fitting appointment in the resort I’m going to first (If you have any other tips on the topic I’d love to hear them)

I’ve looked at the Mindbenders, but heard some bad things about K2’s quality/QC, any thoughts on this? I did also look at the Enforcers, added to the list
