Has anyone skied the K2 Apache Outlaw or the Rossi. B4. I have already tried "search" not much came up. But I live on the east coast and these two skis look like good EC tree skis. What do you think?

People should learn endurance; they should learn to endure the discomforts of heat and cold, hunger and thirst; they should learn to be patient when receiving abuse and scorn; for it is the practice of endurance that quenches the fire of worldly passions which is burning up their bodies.

I demoed the Rossi B4 this past winter at Kirkwood. It is pretty much the same ski as the previous year's B3. It felt kind of soft and light in the tip. The ski worked better when skied aggressively and felt good doing big fast turns. I'm not sure how it would be in tight east coast trees though. Have you considered Phantoms for EC trees?

Phantoms? Yeah the rep left two pair in ski school at a area that I worked at for a season but they have such a crazy shape that they were not fun to ski also they are super soft. Phantoms

Would not recommend the Rossi b4's if they ski like the b3's. They are a great ski, but they like big fast turns. I own b3's and did have them on the EC once. The didn't work all that great in the tight trees. They like wide open places.
