for all you eyeballin a new pair of iggies...

Here is a blurb from Adam himself on his thoughts of each of the important shapes. Personally I have a pair of FFG's 185cm/250ra on their way in early Jan.

FFF v. FFG v. LG


The FFF in a 190cm length needs time to roll on to edge. I love it on hard
pack, not with others around. it loves smooth surfaces. I don't like
riding it in the crud, chop is not so bad. its large surface creates much
deflection. It's the ultimate go fast on smooth stuff. I have said that it
almost an everyday ride, for jackson, but there are some times that are
tough.
The LG is the right waist width for more everyday stuff but the sidecut is
very dh style. it doesn't like to exit or enter back into the fall line.
It needs to keep its nose pointed down the hill. you can butter the turns
but it is more off-piste than the FFF.
The FFG has a very easy sidecut to init turns with and more taper than
anything else on the market so you can go straight. The waist is way wide
enough to make it easy to stay off the sidecut in the pow. It's going to be
the most versatile of the three for in-bounds/ outa-bounds combo.

easiest to turn
FFG -FFF- LG

easiest to cut thru crud
FFG- LG- FFF

easiest to straightline
LG- FFF- FFG

easiest to ski in-bounds
FFG- FFF- LG

Yeah...doesn't help me much, I was looking at the FFLs. But, I think it's weird that he says that some ski have a downside instead of saying thay they are for this and the rest isn't what the ski is for. (does that make sence?)

What doesn't make sense is the need for a 13-year old jibber with his ass hanging out to be on a pair of $1000 Iggys. We've already established that money isn't an issue for your daddy, so I guess I just answered my own question! If it makes you feel any better, Warren Miller skis on Pocket Rockets also, and he's like 80.

Heh, yeah, I was looking at...never could aford. My dad is worthless as far as money goes really, and...yes, alot of people have PRs BB. Are you going to make fun of all of us? Besides, not like I ski them anymore. And fuck you you drunk.
