Recommend powder/crud skis
I live in California, so usually get to ski Sierra Cement, apart from the occaisional trip to UT. I am currently skiing the K2 Seth Pistols 189, and they are great in fresh powder (Sierra Cement or UT powder) or in soft crud (UT style), but I get thrown around a lot in Sierra Cement crud. I have finally trashed these skis to the point where I need to start thinking about replacing them. Can anyone recommend a good replacement that is amazing in powder, but can handle crud better than the Seth Pistol.
Thanks.

not sure what 'utah-style' crud is, but take your jonggity jong-jong jongness over to 'TECH-TALK' for more detailed info.
I have mastered all major sporting activities to a high degree of mediocrity.

The best powder/crud skis ever are Volkl SnoRangers, 200 cm. You can now, for a short time, own your very own for the low, low price of $125, plus shipping. Bindings included. Pick up in Truckee can be arranged.

I suggest you get some longboards.

Actually, you want a man's ski. Lucky for you I have such a ski available.
194 Stockli SS Pros. One of the best skis out there. I never found a top speed on these babies. Don't listen to these other people trying to pawn off their feeble boards.

If you're going standard, i'd use 88/.5. Why sacrifice performance?
