Yeah I have to agree with Max on that one. There are some wide skis that are made like GS skis (Stockli used to make several) that rail on hard snow and are incredibly stable. But most wide skis today have some amount of rocker, a lot less metal and they are by no means more stable than a thin GS ski with huge amounts of metal. There really isn't an argument here, it's just simple physics. The more metal the more stable and while there may be some wide skis with as much metal as a GS ski today they are few and far between, and most people can't ski on them anyway.
