Hey Perry, it's funny you mention that. I was riding up the lift with an instructor who was on some fatter skis and he saw Elans and said they were the skis he taught on. We had 3 inches of fresh down and some day old pow below in spots. He suggested the same thing so I tried it.

I found in those conditions I personally liked the traditional edge set up. I found because of the mixed snow that the big toe edge, traditional shovel worked best for me. I liked the way the rockered baby toe edge improved getting to the drift or float when I needed it. Probably a personal preference.

My Kastle 84's have traditional tip and tail and I skied those the next 2 days in fresh and broken pow..all good there.

I actually pulled out the Rev105's and skied them the biggest snow day as well and although it wasn't over boot high, the ski peformed very well.

Ha....3 boards..crazy I know but I had a blast playing around with them in the variety of conditions.

Best, G
