    Because you buy a overgrown parkski and think it is a powder ski... I will never ever understand the people who get one of Pollards bc-jib skis when they never ski backwards och even rotate on drops or hucks. There's so many skis that are 4 times better that Lizzie and Sir Francis when it comes to regular skiing.

    just my 0.02$!

    Well your two cents are pretty dumb, no offense.

    They're soft skis that are great for pow skiing. Switch or normal, it doesn't matter.

    Plus you've got no idea whether a lot of the people on them are landing stuff switch or not.
