@spyderjon, I saw them...but they only had the 180s in stock...am already skiing longer than most ski shops would recommend (5ft 5 female and 60kg) but I just think they are fab (am trying to avoid the word "awesome")!

Isn't the Black Pearl the chic's equivalent?

In shape yes but it doesn't have the two metal layers. The Black Pearl equivalent was the Bushwacker which was dropped last season.

That must've been a very bendy ski.

What made you folks go for the brahma over the bona? Did anyone try the kendo?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
@Mother hucker, The Kendo feels too sqibby and dampoo, whereas the Brahma is more responsive and better balanced.
|
|
|
|
|
|
You know it makes sense.
|
|
@Mother hucker, Ive got a pair of WD Ranger108cl and wanted something narrower/more piste orientated. The Bonafide @98 waist isn't really that ski. I've tested a few skis in this sort of range and loved the Brahma from the first turn.

Me too, so I went for the Latigo in 184 which is so much more of a ski than just a "slimmer version" of the Brahma.

Yep; OP at EOSB. Thought it was time to take the plunge on a bag. Plus my 11l dakine was always a jam.

My recent 'oops': nipped into Ellis Brigham for a ski bag and left also with a pair of 145cm junior SL skis.

That does make me wonder what your definition of "serious" is?

You do realise that because the jetforce is multi deployment there is no guilt factor when your "mates" "accidentallly" pull the trigger when you're in a gondola or such like or even putting your skis on in the morning.h
