BTW - I know how difficult it is to find fat skis that reward good PMTS technique.  Almost everything available has been adulterated with early rise or rocker.  The Chariot looks good on paper and is beautiful to look at, but failed to live up to my expectations on snow.  Two skis that haven't failed me though are the ZAG Heli Gold and the Scott Crusade.  Those give you options for 92mm, 95mm, and 98mm underfoot (the Heli Gold width varies with length).  Both are traditional cambered skis.  The ZAG is especially fun in deeper snow, but still rails groomers like a rocket ship.  The Crusade is a crud buster extraordinaire with a super tight 15m radius for the 179cm (but it's not hooky at all due to the advanced tip geometry).  Both skis are up on eBay quite often for cheap.  They're a steal at any price, but at sub $500 prices they're one heck of a good bang for the buck.

Sorry for the little thread drift there - now back to your regularly scheduled ski review...
