    The 191’s are plenty playful & nimble in the right snow. I wouldn’t agonize over it too much.

    Got out on the Jeffrey 118’s today for a few laps. Man, these are so much fun in anything soft. Steamroll chop, check. Nimble thru the trees, check. Fun off the rollers in the park, check.

    Given that the asym Cease&Desists are effectively a fat Billy Goat, they also steamroll anything in the way. Mine were built in 2018 and have the “old” tour core, which is all bamboo.

    Today, I’m afraid I had to Cease & Desist. It was glorious. These skis on soft, cut up snow enable ridiculous speeds and huge grins.
