The cochise is perfect as is, its not meant to be a powder ski, and it does fine up to a point and at that point your reaching for something fatter. You know, something around 118 to 120.
If it's not meant to be a powder ski, Blizzard is missing the following ski from their lineup:

The old bodacious was a wide all mountain ski. The 15/16 Bodacious is an aggressive powder ski. It looses the two+ sheets of metal, gets a tapered tip and tail profile and some carbon in the tip and tail to keep things damp while reducing swing weight, or something along those lines. What you get is a ski that is still on the upper tier with regards to stiffness, and a lighter but still damp tip and tail.

In conclusion, is the new Bodacious daily driver material? I would not want to ski it every day. It is however an excellent resort powder ski for anyone who wants to run with the fall line, and have stability to take speed through the cut up shit.
Yeah, I just see a TON of overlap here with the Spur. Curious to hear your thoughts on the differences when you get the chance to ski one.
