So, G jumps in and changes his quiver for the '12 season and without a demo experience. It would have been a bigger surprise if he chose to hold the existing quiver, and, yes - the thrill associated with having a new ski to try out is addictive. Have a great experience on them my friend!
I saw the DPS skis several times at the Gathering last year and skied a run behind someone who was using them. Judgmental person that I am, the person I skied with had some flawed technique and just steered them. I would like to follow Gary and see them perform as his skills are advance. They are unique and it's a leap of faith for a traditional ski proponent to think they will perform. I'm very much looking to read the December actual skiing experience on them. FWIW, if I did all the western trips that Ron and Gary do, I'd have demo'ing them high on my priority list.
So, personally, I'm sitting on the fence about getting a soft snow ski for next year. I want one, I don't need one.
It's looking probable that in early Dec., the tennis diva and I will be in Key West, so I'll be with ya, G, in spirit only.
When was the last winter that you did not get a new ski?
