Michael, I have the mojo's and the SS's for Steamboat, given what you have seen with the 78's would you recomend looking at replacing the SS's with 78's or is that too much overlap with the mojo's? I still want that GS, high performance ability for harder snow days but since you really don't get true hard snow out there and those 78's have a 14m radius, I was thinking that may be a good option.? You could still carvea? mean line but then jump into any thing off-piste still around.

Thoughts from my fellow gear-****?

Ron:? My 78's from Dawg came in last week (I got the 177cm length) and I will be bringing them to RealSkiers II and all are welcome to demo.
I fact, even though I don't usually bring two pair, I will probably bring my i.SL Chips to ski the first couple of days and get reacquainted with my feet.

But I agree with Michael, I doubt that replacing the SuperShape with an iM78 makes much sense when you've got such good coverage on both sides of the 78 mm waist.
