Blades 'n' Glades

I've never skied on anything so small, but it looks like it forces you into the backseat? If so, that doesnt amount to fun.

I was thinking you had better stay out of the backseat on those things, otherwise you will end up on your backside!

Everybody on TGR hates on rax, but some of my earliest tree skiing was on some 140cm kids skis with the bindings cranked back. Makes for a super short tail which just digs into the snow and is super maneuverable and unstoppable in tight woods. I have a pair of 180cm volkl snow rangers (mounted on the line) which have a super short tail, they are great in wind pack or 3-day old untracked because of how they sink the tail while float the tip.....entirely different than a fat reverse camber ski, but actually better in more dense snow.

I always wanted to try the blades but never have.

I tried them for two runs at a small mountain years ago. That was all I needed.
