Svend,
Thanks for sharing.

The funny thing is my other wide ski is same Kastle 88 Phil compared with the Sultan 94. Hard snow vs a soft snow ski. Perhaps even funnier that all 3 of my skis, other is the Supershape, were bought almost new at major discounts over new. Given the accelerated depreciation of skis, buying at the right price keeps a lot of $$$ in my pockets (or at least until I go skiing).

I'm in violent agreement with all you wrote above. No buyers remorse, even from this east coast ice skier. And you just gave me some more reasons to get to Holiday Valley. It's a mere 7 hours drive in the dead of winter over some difficult terrain. Did it once in late spring to ski with G, so I have some appreciation of the trip and local ski terrain. I'm sure it would be a blast.
