Well Gary, I am happy you had fun on the 82's but its so sad to think that's the conditions we will be facing for the season!  ???

I will also add the to 82 accolades the performance as far as tree skiing and piled loose powder. Totally different conditions but the 82's were so nimble in tight turns in the trees with great float in 8"-24+" of powder. Many times we were up to our knees and skied in big piles; almost pillow-like conditions. This was a bit tricky at times, If you let the skis separate, you were in trouble and fast.  The 82's came around nicely and still provided a nice platform. Some runs included small 3' drops into a big pile of pow that required a qucik turn out into the next pile. They were outstanding.
