    What ski? 130-135mm underfoot and traditional shape...

    130-135mm underfoot. Normal sidecut/shape, early-rise tip. Flat or some camber, not reverse. Traditional fat ski style.

    Ideally something like an Atomic Thug, or Liberty DoubleHelix but 10-15mm wider underfoot.
    Drive slow, homie.

    This is exactly what came to my mind. Be sure to mount with Dukes for maximum weight per leg.

    Better yet, mount the Dukes on Derbyflex plates.

    Bmx 128. It feels like a world cup DH ski maker decided to make a big mountain ski. Not amazing float at slow speeds but once you hit about 35 in 3d snow it becomes super floaty and nimble. I probably hit mid 50s on wind buff and groomers and never felt like I came close to pushing the ski. The 188 is the longest 188 ive ever skied. Volkl Shiro 193s feel like less ski.

    This. There's a reason there's barely anything out there beyond 118mm that doesn't have an extreme powder-oriented shape. Cause otherwise what is the fucking point unless you're like 280 pounds looking for a slightly on the wide side all mountain ski?

    Yeah, those 130s look good. Searching for dimensions on those actually brought me to the Sick Day 125s - which look just about perfect. I think 125-135mm is actually what I mean to say for waist width. And tip width less than 160mm.

    For everyone telling me I need the newest triple reverse camber skis - I think that there are lots of applications and types of skiing out there where the new style skis are not ideal. Even so, personal preference is......personal.

    Thanks for all the suggestions!
    Drive slow, homie.
