I hope you're not talking about me, because I carry my masculinity between my legs, not on my feet. :FIREdevil

Sadly, I'm pretty sure that LB's comment was directed at me.
For the record, however, this is self imposed. She could care less how many skis I have, so long as she gets presents too. :D

Silly to have all of 'em, but I buy in the spring and summer when I see a good deal and then figure out what to pass on and what to keep at a later date.
Also have the 195 Praxis coming.

I live in Montreal so Im pretty much forced to jib it up all winter long but I often go on summer skiing trips and Im moving back to BC permanently in 8 months. Actually, I just came back from a 3 week ski trip all over Chile yesterday. Ill post a thread with my best pictures soon. At my local ski hill, Mont Avila, which is pretty much one big snow park, I rock my huge sticks on the yearly gaper/old school fashion day (yes, we got those over here too!) and everybody looks at me like Im a freaking mutant with my 110mm+ waisted skis, I love it. Side flipping with 190cm skis off the 60foot tabletop feels so good. Rock on biatches!!....

just let me know if you ever make it down to stowe, you can get laughed at with the rest of us for giant skis in america too

How do you like your 193 EHPs?

http://www.stud.hig.no/%7E995407/tgr_tr/quiver.jpg

Thd Do you like those SS pros? How do they perform? Ive searched and have found little on this stick. Would any one share their insight on the SS PROS

Thanks

I skied on the SS last year. Serious skis that require serious input. At slow speeds or in bumps or other crowded places, they handle like a dump truck in a parking garage. But with speed, decent snow and some space, they totally come alive. Absolutely fantastic on steeps. Good in powder, provided you like skiing in the snow rather than smearing - they're too skinny for that. They'll make you a faster, better skier; or they'll kick your butt, and you'll be selling them by Christmas.

I love them. Im no the biggest guy (5'11/180lbs) and they perform so well in powder and in pretty much any conditions: crud and the harder stuff too. I adore the combination of a soft-flexy tip, stiff underfoot and tail, straight-ish shape and the fact they are pretty damn light for their mega fat size. The soft tips eat up everything without making you feel it. Its flexyness sorta absorbs the bumps in the road instead of your legs doing it, a fucking great idea! Skiing fresh and tracked pow-pow has never been so easy and effortless for me. The only thing you cant do with these is carve, damn near impossible. It will hold an edge in any condition cause of its stiff underfoot and tail but its shape doe not permit any sort of carving whatsoever which means you have to pivot them to turn. Thats fine for me, their light, I avoid groomers, usually go as straight as possible and I learned to ski pow on 190explosives so this is a major upgrade. Get them, they may look hard to ski but in pow, they are effortless!!!!

DFL I appreciate the input.

Thanks man. I'm undecided between either the EHPs or a pair of Sanouks for a pow day ski. The Moment Melees sound pretty sweet too, although I don't know anything about symmetrical designs.

The EHPs really intrigue me though mostly for the traits you mentioned. That soft long rise tip will plane easily with no tip dive, and the stiffer tail give a nice landing platform I imagine.

HUGE difference between these skis. Go with sanouks if you want to ski powder in a fairly mellow fashion; they are very very soft. EHPs if you want to charge.

I know that the Sanouk is super soft, I just haven't decided which flex I want to go with. In an ideal world I would like to demo both but I highly doubt that will happen.

Do you still have your Sanouks? If I remember correctly, you like them quite a bit right?

I love them. As was said they are maybe not the most nimble when going slowly but as the speed builds they start really responding. I use it mostly at my local resorts, which have limited off-piste potential but wide, icy and steep groomed runs. It acts like a wide racing ski, all the ice grip and stability at speed that you need. It's good off-pist as well but since I got the Sanouks I haven't really used them on any big powder days. However the little I have tried them they did alright considering their narrowness. And as the conditions get worse they get better :biggrin:

Quite a swallowtail quiver. What are the ones that aren't Sanouks? I don't recognize the graphics.

Scott Pure's (or Pure something), not a full swallowtail either.

Maybe I should put a saw to the venturi channel ;)

You can work the the Stockli SS down anything. If you stay on top of them, they do as they are told. And they hold an edge like a racing ski. But if trees and technical lines are your everyday thing, I would probably look elsewhere. Maybe the Head iM88? Even the Dynastar Legend Pro, which is suprisingly easy to turn.
