    Recommendations For Spring/Booter/PowPow Ski

    Since I can only afford to buy one more pair of skiiiis this year and I already have a great hardpack/variable ski (M103) I want something that will be good for all other options. Specifically...late spring/summer mush, bc booters, and spray yourself down with DNA pow days. So they need to float VERY well, be on the soft side, and not be heavy since they will be on my back a lot. Looking for at least 110ish waist and no straight tails. This is a huge list of skis, but any recommends would be cool as I'm bored and just want ideas. So these could be absolute shit on hard or crud since they'll never see it.
    If it's green, smoke it...if it's pink, poke it

    I was going to say scratch BC...but the 110 mm waist requirement eliminates it. As soon as i read your post i was thinking thatmy sickbirds would be the answer you are looking for (pretty much the same as the BC)

    Made'ns were my first thought...I've always liked K2s for a softer ski. And I'm not dead set on 110 min just sounds about right, but they will be used for deep days so I want max float and I like em big...don't say anything

    Speaking of Thugs...I saw this donkey racer douche with them on a groomer day last week. He was helping the other douches scrape all the snow of the hill for some bs race and I must have seen him fall on his face 10 times...I hate racing cause I can't stand to see kids spending so much time on the mtn and doing so little skiiiiing (just offended half the people on here)...so seeing him eat shit repeatedly made me laugh

    JP vs. Juliens come to mind for being a pretty soft BC booter ski that is very light, and I mean very ridiculously light, only 103 underfoot though.
