Now that I got the powder boards think I'll get some wateas after the season is over.

78 or 84? Guess its what slot in the quiver your trying to fill.

FWIW my 84s rip on groomers and are "ok" on ice. They killed in the recent dump at Hunter though.

I <3 my 84s

I've used them all season.

I had one day in October when I used my old skis (K2 enemys) out of rock concerns.

I had one other day a couple of weeks ago when I decided to try out my K2 silencers I got cheap in the offseason (sierraskis clearance sale). I don't know if it was a bad tune or they're just not the right skis for me, but they just didn't hold an edge for me at all... Went back to the Wateas and all was right with the world.

I have the 184 length (6'4" about 250lbs) , and they're very light and manageable.

On the iciest of the icy, sometimes I'll have trouble getting the edge to bite, but usually, I don't have a problem getting an edge at all.

I skied them this past weekend up at Sunday River in lots of fresh snow (sometimes heavy, sometimes light powder depending on where you were on the mountain) and they performed very well. I had a blast.

I would get 84's as my Volkls are 82 but just too damn stiff in the bumps..they kill on ice though. Skiing in the east is tough as you literaly need different skis for different times of the day at times. This upcoming weekend will be icey in the morning then mashed later on...volkls in the morn, rossis in the afternoon I guess.
