The One is not a full rocker so there is a decent amount of ski on the snow at neutral. That is the part of the ski that is carving in the early phase of the turn. As the turn progresses more of the ski edge comes into contact with the snow. Imagine starting off carving a short SL ski that morphs into a GS ski by the end of the turn.

Such a ski would be a good thing, right?  Is this pro or con in a ski like the One?
