    East Coast Skiers

    where do you ride and what kind of skis do you shred the mountain with. I need to find something I can really tear it up with. Something that can rip up the ice, charge the trees, and blast down those rock hard bump runs. Personally I think most of the skis in the shops pretty much blow and I need to find something I can have a little fun on. I'll probably settle on a racer but I was hoping for something a little thicker in the middle, I'm curious as to what one of those titan pro's would be like on ice a little sketchy getting it from edge to edge I imagine. Anyone know where I can get the specs on super g skiis.

    Have an All4OnePass and ski Killington and Mount Snow. Use 2006 Rossi B1's at 114/74/104. They are a very good all around ski for eastern conditions but need something wider in the mid for better float on pow days.

    stowe and jay peak, as for skis, i have 7 pair, but this year my everyday EC ski will be 180 explosives. they;re 95 at the waist, but should still kill it on the groomers. Other options in the quiver include 185 pocket rockets, 188 super stiff and soft bros, as well as 193 m103s and volant spatulas.

    i have several pair as well...its really hard to run w/ just one pair. i spend most of my time off trail but as you know conditions can really suck off trail too. i have a pair or atomic ex's and tweaked the mount up a half cm. they seem to work well for the tight stuff but also run really well on a groomer run out. im picking up a pair of b5's 'cause i want a tighter turning ski and the 'hook'. not sure how they'll float 131-76-115. bottom line for me is i'll buy whatever i can get a deal on...its the skier and the tune, not necessarily the ski!
