Living in the UK, I don't get to ski nearly as much as I'd like, as I can't just nip away for weekends. I try to make it out to the Alps

In effect, it seems to me that if you're going to spending much time at all in your unfamiliar area, you're probably better off going for something which really works well there, even if it's only for a small part of the overall ski time. I am a follower of PMTS and try to do all my skiing in that way, but I've never quite gone for the idea of skiing powder on Head Supershapes as many of the better PMTS skiers.

I would love to see the "top" PMTS come and show me how to ski powder on SS.

The thing is SS are groomer skis, great skier can make them work nearly anywhere but they will never be as good as a Im78 or skis that are much wider.

with skis with long turn radius you can do this thing called steering that lets you make any size turn at any speed you want......
