Back at it after 10+ years

One other thing I'll say is that it's crazy how you can make wide arcs, short turns and really vary your style and radius on these things. I know I'm preaching to the choir, but damn. Just wow.

What was your last pair of skis? It’s been a lot more than 10 years since sidecut was introduced

For sure, agree. Atomic Betas. I could carve those too, but these K2 Disruption 82ti's hit different. These feel more stable and fast. I felt a bit back on my heels a couple of times bc they rode quicker than I first expected. But I adjusted and they were a lot of fun.

But I was desperate to get some turns in and get home by 6:30p. So I drove out and it was awesome - not so much for the mountain (more of a hill than anything, but certainly a great spot for kids and those looking to learn to ski), but for the fact that it was like riding a bike. By my second run, I was making quick, precise turns, carving into the heavily groomed hard snow. I was amazed by these new skis. It's almost like cheating. They bite into the snow and make my transitions as easy as pie. I had a f'ing blast despite the short runs... For $30 and a quick drive, it was fun. I'm just blown away by this new ski technology. Just unreal. So happy I was able to get some turns in to hold me over for a few days. Had a big smile on my face during the drive back and can't wait to hit another spot in the next few days.

Attaboy ?. Local bumps within 20 minutes works well for some quick fun.
Keep building up yer ski muscle endurance and have more fun.
Lather rinse repeat.
