I just figured out the we SuburbanSkiAndBike.com have over 21 models of deep snow aka powder skis in stock. Skis in this category have waist widths of 98-134mm and are rockered. You can smear and surf like a pro with one of these skis. Of course if you're a Ski Bum and you live in Alta you'll need a pair of these, however if you live on the East Coast do they make sense? Well if you're a Meatheads and FIS fan like me you'll see these skis get a work out on those special days and in the woods of the east.

BTW I love the Canadian sarcasm in Rossignol's Video.

Where is your Black Friday ad? I've managed to stay out of your shop for a while, but will probably drop off the skis for their yearly tune.

Sorry, but they suck on anything but soft snow. Would I like to have a pair, yes. Do I want them as my only pair, no frigging way.

I'm looking into either: Bent Chetler, Armada JJ or K2 Hellbent. Wondering why you don't carry the K2 ?

Not to make your choice more difficult but I ahve been thinking about the JJ and the Bent Chetler along with the Momey Bibby Pro and Line SFB.... decisions decisions lol I really like the Wailers but that is just too much scratch for me to justify.

Have also seen some videoed skiers mentioning 4frnt's Turbo = a little more kick than a JJ...if that's what one desires...but as always = need to try first..
