JB...Iam lol...we're comparing the moisture content of snow? Not that it matters....we live on the Great Lakes..and yes we have 100% himidity many snow days....But hey...having never skied Taos, I can't say. I can say where we skied at JH at mid to lower mountain....it was heavy solidified piles of crud on the trails, better in the trees.

I'm just saying my experience tells me the DPS is not a heavy wet compacted compressed snow ski....BUT it will be a blast in spring snow that can be pushed around....spring slurry......the temps soften things up and it's skiing butter.

Finding the right tool no matter what the moisture content can make all the difference in the world.

Best, G

Max....versatile the word I understand but there will be strengths and weaknesses IMO, pluses and minuses....when you find that perfect ski that does everything absolutely the best FOR ME.....I'll buy one!
