Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Going light, Scott Powd'airs. Any opinions/options.

Had a great time last year on my preachers on the big snow days, but thinking I might want to go light for next season. Thinking about selling the preachers and getting some Scott Powd'airs and fitting dynafit bindings. Anyone done this, or something similar.

Good set-up that. If you like the Preachers when also consider the new carbonlite Whitedots. I've got great summer pre-season offers on at the moment on Whitedot, Dynafit, Scott & PM Gear freeride/touring packages.

spyderjon, Can you tell us more about the Whitedot Carbonlite offer? Is it only the Redemeers in Carbonlite or will there be others in the range as well?

mishmash, for 13/14 Whitedot are producing all their existing models (apart from the One) in both their traditional construction & their Carbonlite construction, including their new Ranger model. All the models/specs are here: http://www.jonsskituning.co.uk/component/page,shop.browse/category_id,28/option,com_virtuemart/Itemid,1/
If you email me (jon at thepisteoffice.com) I can send you details of my summer offer.

I've gone all wobbly, which isn't like me, still fancy the Powd'airs but now fancying the WD carbon lite directors, anyone skied the directors. I've skied rockered zags before and found them weird on piste like having multiple radius skis but turned on a dime in the woods.

Also torn between dyna fits, f12s or Barons. In truth I won't be skinning in them but want to be able to use my touring boots with them as and when. Any views on the choice between f12s and Barons for a bonny lad who doesn't huck anymore, well not much.

F12s v Barons - I'd go with the ones you can get a deal on. I picked up some F12s on a deal and have been happy with them as a replacement for Dukes. I don't huck (intentionally) but I wouldn't call myself a finesse skier either

 After all it is free Go on u know u want to!

jbob, if you're not skinning, why go light?! Heavier and damper FTW for lift-served IME.

I think Marker are bringing out a new binding (the Lord?) next season, an alpine binding that accommodates AT soles. May be worth looking into if it works out cheaper than Barons.

jbob, get stuck in to the Downskis offer.

Carbon skis, yet fat and big-snow. A load of choice in their pre season offer at something around €349.
I don't know if you are BASI etc but if you are contact Down asap for a hefty discount on that.

rungsp, Thanks all for the comments. Down look interesting spec and the right money, only thing is I have never heard of them or even know anyone who has tried them.

jbob, pretty new company, so not so many users yet. Quite a few users/pics on the 'Snow for the Euros' thread if you use TGR/know of any of the euro mags, they're gaining popularity in my neck of the woods. Made in the same factory as Whitedot and a few other more well known brands. Email them if you have questions though, they're pretty open about how/why they do stuff.
