Nice to hear J....and such a great deal. Every once in a awhile, a ski comes along that seems like it was made for you....and there ya go.

I also owned the Water 84 and 94....both were great in pow and bumps giving the carving prowess headsup to the 84. What I found at my 158lbs if I layed over carves on the 94, the downhill ski became ultra dominnet....it wanted to go solo so I had to be wary of that. Great energy in both for all mountain performance.

It's truly amazing the versatility of todays skis. I still like that 70 something underfoot for eastern carving or out west "been dry no snow"days..

I have found that my Icelantic Pilgrims 90 underfoot can be laid over and carved at speed and high edge angle with not a pilot worry. Can't say I've found that to be true with the Armada JJ's yet, time will tell....but then again, I bought it for a different reason.

It's always great fun hearing about skiers experiences on their skis and what kinds of conditions they are skiing.
Hope the pow keeps droping in your area.? Best, Gary
