Joes right....John was on the Head Peak 78's at Portillo....speaks very highly of that ski.
Perry....I too found it important to have a 2 ski quivver...with my Fischer P8's, 72 underfoot and a 12 meter turning radius....groomers, bumps, and up to boot high snow....it's a blast....
When the snow get's nasty, wet or deep, out come the Pilgrims, 90 underfoot, 17 meter turning radius and they are a blast.
Your Magnums will handle all Aspen can throw at you. What I find having skied my 66mm waist Head SS in boot high snow, they take more focus and concentration, more mental and physical energy to ski in the deeper stuff. In those conditions, I can relax more, think less with the wide 90mm underfoot.
All boils down to personal preference for sure. I do get the ski in instead of on top and that's why I use that ankle / boot high snow marker (depneding on wet or dry snow) as my personal marker for changing skis.
Ron is right on in the low angle pow department....if it floats on top ya don't need as much speed like when? you're a foot deep.
Steamboats coming this weekend for a week....so pumped....think snow everyone....lots of it!
Best, Gary
