Hey Mike, no need to apologize.  It was fun to read your quick snapshot reviews.

So.....are you keeping the Sultans? Liking those, are you?

Too bad you couldn't have tried the Waveflex 14 and Course Ti on the hard snow day.  I've read great things about both skis, esp. the latter.  That one may be an eventual replacement for my Progressor 9's.  Supposed to be superb, smooth and powerful, yet not overly demanding.  I really like Dynastar skis. 


Sounds like you had a great time out there.  And I hear you about getting more time in powder.  I experienced some of that at the back bowls of Louise last week -- steep pitch, 12 to 18 inches of fresh snow pushed around into big crud piles; first I was a flailing beginner; then began to approach some semblance of balance and poise.  Could have used wider skis, but doing this on my Mythics at 88mm was a great learning experience in two-footed skiing and gentle transitions.  Tons of fun, nevertheless.  Give me more!!!
I'm not bummed that he didn't have hard snow to ski while doing this test.  :D
Just saying......
Sometimes you just need to let your Bad Self ski!!
