Poster: A snowHead
|
So, I am a pretty experienced skier, at the moment mainly blasting down groomers but also a bit of powder whenever I can. I would, however, like to start doing jumps and venturing into the park. So really what I am looking for is a ski that I can use for a lot of skiing on piste but also great in the park. Does such a ski exist and if so can anyone suggest any? I have been looking at the K2 Press (2013) which or the Volkl Alley (2013) which look like they may be what I am looking for. Could anyone tell me if I am on the right lines?
Thanks
Sam

Is this to be skied in europe? Will you be jumping mostly in the park or hitting rails?
The 2 skis you mentioned (as far as I know) are symmetrical. That feel on piste is a wierd one if you are coming off a piste ski. I'd be more tempted to steer you in the direction of the volkl kink, atomic panic or k2 sight. These are all more directional, twins without being pure park skis.

Not the easiest ski to find but i use Liberty Hazmats and they are perfect for everything i have found, although i'm not in the park much tbh
On piste and off the 94mm waist feels good and they are a nice flex which means i can get a wee bit lazy with my skiing if i want but handle well when i blast them

have a look at the Majesty LocalHero or Thunderbolt
I would say Movement Jam or Source, but they don't have the twin-tip for the park.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Nordica Soul Rider is worth a look.
