BTW - I am a nanometer from buying my skis ???
? mikes comment about not spending vacation standing around ski shops waiting for the binding adjustment made too much sense.

Perry,
It's scary to think that people listen to what I write. It's no fun in the demo shops in the early morning and they may not have what you need.

After getting bounced around on the great eastern powder at Hunter today (read between the lines on that one - really hard snow conditions) Elk has to be softer. So guys, to the extent I can, I'll concentrate on the wider skis discussed here.

BTW, was on the MX88's for the first time this season today, nicely tuned thanks to G's diamond file thread. I continue to be smitten, stoked and seduced by that ski. A friend, who was with me two days ago at Blue when I was on the Shapes, commented that my skiing is much more confident today on more difficult terrain and at higher speeds. I can quibble that it's not a fair comparison based on what I was trying to do each day, but the range of the 88's is far greater. They rock!
