Phil,
you are likely to get a call sometime soon.? I think talking to you with the back and forth that affords will help me.? The deal on the Kastle's is extra nice and definitely tempting.? I am not sure about the length for me.? Does that ski have an early rise tip?
Here is another big part of my history that affects my thought process.? I once demoed a bunch of skis including the Dynastar 8000 and ended up buying the Head IM 75 (which I couldn't demo) based on the realskiers recommendation.? The problem was that I really loved the 8000 and regretted not buying it later.? The Monster was still a great ski and held their value - just sold them on Ebay for $200, but I think for me, the 8000 would have been the ski.
I keep going back to the Sultan 95 in part because of that but of course that doesn't make any real sense, different skis, different times, different options.
Anyway, I have indulged you all too long with my ramblings.? Your input has been very helpful and I appreciate it.? Jim, I only hope that if I don't go with the UC that someday we can swap skis an a nice day and have some fun together.? In the end, that is what it is all about and what causes me to love this sport enough to do all this research.
The MX98 does have early rise. I will say while the Sultan 94 says it does, it does has "marketing rise", minimal at most. As far as length, how big of a guy are you?
