Do you have to readjust when swithching between skis in your quiver?

What you're noticing is the differences in sidecut. A 24 meter turn is much straighter (by 10 meters) than a 14 meter radius. Think of it as a longer set of parantheses (( from the tip of one to the opposite tip is either 14 or 24 meters. If it's longer it will feel more parallel (because it is) and not as nimble in trees, bumps etc. A short radius turn will bring you across the hill farther and feel quicker through tight situations.

I hope that helps.

Sidecut has nothing to do with the issue of having a ski go from parallel to a wedge. That is technical and not ski related regardless of sidecut or width. But this is a good point that the skis are not going to flex the same with that much difference in sidecut.

I just can't deal with boot changes. :-( That is a whole different story.

Agreed, doing the rando thing at Magic tomorrow. The intuitions in the adrenalines help, but they sure aren't my custom fit and modded comp120's
