It would be interesting to see video of actual skiing on both skis. Anyway I cut it, it's a fun problem to tinker with.



Darn right.  It is fun, and those comments made on the hill really made me think about a few things.  Stem turns on the Fischers? Huh? Didn't even notice that. Pulling my inside ski back (Retraction Move....is that the name for it?) on my Mythics? Didn't know I was doing it! Bottom line, it was some of the most helpful bit of feedback I've received all year.  I'll be with Gary at Banff again in a couple of weeks, so will get him to roll some film.  And the fun part about renting performance skis in a place like Banff, is that I can try a different, really great ski, every day.  It'll be interesting to see which ones make me a more fluid skier, vs. which ones I feel I have the most fun on.  Might be two very different outcomes.....  :)
