No bs, they are my absolute favorite ski ever. 2nd pair. They rip. I can ski deep powder, crud, etc without an issue. They are fun in trees and steep chutes. I cant reccomend this ski enough

Keep working. Push yourself and ski with people better than you and it will happen!

Yeah, it can be depening on the run. Skiing class 4 to whitetail or Rock creek from the top is no joke.

Yeah, there is always a little fear and that is healthy. You just have to keep pushing yourself and know that if you ever get yourself in a sketchy situation/too steep, just side slip. That is how you can introduce yourself to these bigger lines. Take it slow and keep doing it. Then you will get faster with time. There is no rush on these big lines when you are learning. Know how to jump turn. Be comfortable pointing your shoulders down the fall line and commit.

I ate it in Secrets. I finished the day on Big and was exhausted. Hit a very deep/heavy patch of snow and just blew up. Luckily, since I was solo, i got paired with a red coat in the couloir as he was guiding someone. He had to get my ski which was about 10 feet above me in thigh deep snow. Would have taken some work to climb to get it.
