It's always a good thing when the UPS truck drops off boxes that are about 6 feet long at the house! Enjoy!

Ahh nice choice. I loved the sugar Daddy's. I think they're 101 under foot, nice and light yet still very solid on crud and awesome in the pow!. Only limitation IMHO, is at speed on packed conditions.

edge bevel question....my Sugar Daddies are 1:1 (Side:Base) thinking of going 3:1 to hold better on hardpack...even when we get a good dumping, the hardpack/ice is still there....i want to broaden the versatility of this ski...any thoughts?

Typically Atomics do come with a 3 deg bevel, but come on man these are powder skis. Don't you plan on using something else for hardpack and ice,

as i stated in my original post....even when we get a good dumping 6"+, the sugar daddies are unreal, but there is still hardpack/ice lurking underneath, esp in the afternoon when things start getting skiied off....
