Not dead set on Perfect Ones, but a ski like that.? Yes, the Power One is like the supershapes, the Perfect One is like the TT line that JBotti (and Todd) wrote up earlier.? At times Lynn borders on wanting to go back to her iC160's because they were so good for learning and doing PMTS tipping drills, etc.? However, they had a top end.? The EveryThangs do very well at all of her skiing, but are stiffer than she would like for the various and sundry skill improvement drills.? We are attracted by the description of the ski as "great for skill improvement" while still capable of higher speed groomer cruising.? And the softer flex would also facilitate bumps, which is another area that draws Lynn like flies to honey.

Definitely open to suggestions of other skis that have that softer feel but still up to an occasional burst of speed (and the bursts are infrequent).? Maybe an instructors ski would be in the same category, something that can be used when doing slow stuff with the class but still capable of some faster skiing.? I think most instructiors don't teach on their free skiing skis.
