well said, and i have to add:

Watea 84. This ski is just fantastic! It was as gary said, smooth, nimble and so light underfoot. This ski excelled in the bumps and soft pushed snow. Skis more like it was a 72mm wide ski. Off the scale on the fun factor. This is a great example of the difference in a softer flexing ski (tip to waist) over a stiff board like the 82.

Watea 94. My new favorite ski. This ski was just plain fun. Who would have thought a 94mm wide ski would handl bumps so well? light, quick, nimble, stable, good edge hold and you could swear it's a 80mm wide board. Perfect flex for me and I can see myself using this 80% of the time in Steamboat.

Contact Limited (same as the 11). Another fantastic ski touted by Micheal. It is a fun carving, stable ski with lots of snappy energy and a great feel underfoot. A blast on the hardpack, just not a great boiler plate ski.
