James,
First, I thank you for moving the post, and for allowing me to initiate a question.
"Peace" is both a salutation, deriving from the Hebrew "Shalom" or Arabic "Salamun/Salaam", and is also an intent that I seek knowledge, and not some debate.
The established protocol for someone having skied only 7 times is an intermediate ski for learning. He skied black his very first day, not well but acceptable. By his 5th time on skis he was skiing black with confidence, and for his 7th outing was in the terrain park as well as moguls, and a very steep black course, and complaining these were all "too slow". He watched an expert making some runs, then was able to replicate the same motions on his first try, meaning he is an intuitive skier, and a natural. I regret not having taught him skiing many years ago.
At 16 he ran his first marathon, in a world class time (for his age) of 2.5 hours, meaning he is in superb physical condition. I took him to one of these resorts during the summer, for mountain biking. He rode down, then ran back to the top, carrying his bicycle.
I am looking at some of the posts in the main page, on carving skis. As such, what is the consensus on some of these race-oriented carvers within the category of "Cruiser Carvers"? Dynastar Autodrive Speed SX, Head Cyber XP70 Ti (assuming I could get it), Volkl Carver Motion, Atomic Atomic SL:9 or GS:9.
What about the Cross skis?
And YES, I am VERY impressed with what I am seeing per the Fischer RX8, as well as the Fischer RX Fire 8 Fti. I may have a new first choice...
I thank you.
