realskiers

I have questioned rockers from the word go because IMHO no one has gotten it right. What I would look at as much as the rocker is the sidecut (or lack of) in the design along with tip profile. Personally what I like with what K2 has done with theirs is they kept a good amount of shape to their skis and a real nice tip that will initiate a turn when put up on edge. Many of the big skis/let alone rockered ones are too straight (at least for me) and designed for not turning and straight lining. I have tried a few of next years rockers, not in the deeps but on groomers and I like some that are coming that still have some versatility. The Volkl Gotama, Palmer P01 and Obsethed are a couple that come to mind. Quite frankly I still like my PBR's (10/20 Rockered Maiden AK's) the best.

Maybe this thread title should be changed,,it has little to nothing to do with the Nomad.
