Hey G - the great frustration of us eastern skiers is playing the game of weather roulette when we travel out west. Scanning all the forecasts weeks ahead, hoping and praying for The Big One during our brief time there....and then being disappointed when we get a measly 3 inches for one day out of the five. And there we are, rockered powder boards tuned and waxed (top and bottom

) and ready to rumble, but nowhere to play. Sigh....what's a dreamer to do?
What I'm trying to say, is that I get it. The odds are stacked against us -- skiing max. 10 to 14 days out west every season doesn't bode well for scoring an epic powder day. For this game of roulette, the house usually wins. The only way to assure a jackpot is to live out there from November to April, or go heli skiing in British Columbia.

So, you made a good ski choice. That Rev with its design will take you more places and in more variety of snow conditions than all of those rockered skis could do. And when you do get that powder jackpot you've been waiting for, I'm sure you won't miss the rocker. I don't think you will regret this purchase, and will doubtless prove the skeptics wrong by this time a year from now. Enjoy!
