My Skiing
Started skiing in 2023 after many years snowboarding & splitboarding. Prefer aesthetic lines in the spring & powder turns in the winter. Enjoy the efficiency of skiing & ultimately favor weight savings over performance. Goals are to maximize time and vert in the mountains, optimizing for enjoyment. Maybe do the haute route or volcanoes at some point.

~2019 or so DPS Wailer Tour 106s 185cm + Dynafit Speed Turns
Dynastar M-Tour 99s + Dynafit Superlite 150s
Tecnica Zero G Peak Carbon in size 28

I haven't skied them in deep fluff. Soft chop is easily ...
