although I am no pro, I am pretty satified with my powder skiing.? I can and will improve for sure but that's where I am most happy,? Long story on the keepers, a story best told later but they aren't really for me; for what I am looking for.

Since I wanted to go to a rocker since they are so much more fun in pow and variable, I got rid of my beloved Nomad SFT's which are fantastic skis BTW-?

I am totally hooked on the MX88's after skiing them in the worst conditions I have ever skied in; they are now my daily driver unless theres a lot of loose or fresh. That left me with a hole in the quiver, the keepers are 150-119-136 with rocker but its a 189, its a lot of ski! Most 189's out there are actually 2-3 cms shorter and with more rocker, these are big boards.. I am sure they are a great ski and will rip but I want more of a fun, jibby, tree ripper.? For steeper, more technincal stuff the 88's are so perfect, I just need a soft snow ski.?

So, long story short, yada, yada, yada, I ordered a pair of Bent Chetlers this Am and put this to rest. at 183, 140-122-134, a theroretical 19tr. it has 20/20 rocker. Its a fun, very playful ski. It should be a blast for anything over 6" or for leftovers and stashes.

So that leaves me with 1 thing I need to work on and that's better bump skiing in conjunction with above #2... I know what I need to do, I just need to work on it as much as I hate that thought.
