What can I say? Where have they been all these years? I wish I knew how wonderful they are.
They are so sweet, they do exactly what I tell them and they don't talk back.
They come around so quick, and smear so effortlessly, I almost feel like I'm cheating. Its almost like a different sport. I'd swear they turn quicker than my Hoks in 145.
My first non nordic ski (aside from the hoks). Different animal. Instant level up.
I did a intermediate BC up and down (Wildcat Valley trail), a lift serve day and some backwoods trail rambling, they were so great. Ive never been more confident and aggressive. Loving them, please forgive this pointless rant.

I have not heard a bad review, glad you had fun Sage. Just curious, how much do you weigh?

T4s with Spike step ins. I think the spikes are a bit stiffer/more powerful than the STs Im used to, which adds to the sensation of control. Heavier though and maybe less efficient for touring. A worthy trade-off.

Hey! Is Vail *cough cough* Wildcat selling Single-Ride-Ups for access? There has been some questions about this, and no one answers the phone
I love my BC's. I skied the trail last year with them back to the Farm side, not 16.

No idea about wildcat, I always just hump it up from Jackson, introvert style, 1 car
.
I will say though, I havent seen any alpine types coming down as Im climbing up this year.
