    AT setup opinions (Seth, B3, Daddy)

    So I'm in need of an AT setup this year, and will either get Naxo's or Freerides.

    I need a ski to be my everday, mid-super-fat ski, and am somewhat torn between:
    Seth Pistol 189
    B3 195
    Tele Daddy 183

    Tele Daddy scares me w/ it's short length, but maybe better for touring. I'm leaning towards SP, but have never been on one, so if anyone has input as to how they ski (phunk), I'd very very appurciate it. Is it super hooky? Too much sidecut? Too soft? Just right? Most of you know how I ski, but I'll probably be toning it down a bit this year. Not quite as many 30-footers, anyway

    p.s. my fatties are the FFL Iggies, so I've pretty much got the straight fat category covered.

    Freerides + B3s for UT terrain, big turns, open bowls; more descent oriented

    Freerides + Daddies for more touring/tree skiing/terrain versatility

    Why not 185 B3s? I know you haul ass and huck, but on a touring binding, in the b/c, after this last year? I'll bet Freerides and 185cm B3s would treat you niiiice. A little less weight too...

    Thanks for the input Yoss (gramps?). I don't really care about bindings, either will work--basically which one i can get cheapest

    As for the 185 B3's, that's because all my friends will laugh at me on 185's Especially Professor. But I'd definitely think about them.

    Somehow I have a feeling you'll be paying a lot less for yours, though...
