Hmmmm 50/50 front and back side.

The Watea 94 is a supurb turning ski capable of skiing well in all but hardpack conditions...which you probably won't get there.

Having owned the IM 82 and now the Watea 84, of the two, I find the Watea more versatile and fun ski.

I skied both the Watea 84 and 94 on groomed terrain, broken snow and in nice soft bumps on black terrain and the WOW factor was there.

Given your weight, I don't think you could go wrong period with the 94....it's a dynamite ski. If you want something a bit quicker under foot, then the 84 might be the ticket. The 94 will obvioulsy give you more float in deeper snow but depending on your ski skills, even the 84's will dance in knee high for ya!

Be nice if you could demo.....let us know what you decide.

Have a great season!
