    I've skied the Super Turbo a few days; didn't like the short turn radius.
    But my knee was a littlefucked up at the time, so maybe it was me.[/QUOTE]

    Which version? I skied the original 192 with the blue graphics. I didn't really notice the short radius but I did notice that on hard snow the tips were really flappy. But in powder it felt really similar to the 196 lhasa. I had them 6 years ago and only skied them a couple times so I don't honestly remember them that well.

    120mm waisted groomer skis are going to be the next thing...mark my words!



    I would just recommend trying BG's and as many other skis as you can from all brands. Arm chair QB-ing decisions just looking at dimensions on the interwebz isn't the best way to get what you really want in my experience.

    New BG for 2017 has straight sections of taper and an increased running length (best hard snow grip on a BG yet). May be worth getting on a pair. If not your cup of tea, then for sure go with something a little less surfy and more tank-like.

    Good luck on your search either way!
    You should have been here yesterday!
