    Armada JJ or JJ AK???

    I'm not sure which size Armada JJ to purchase. I'm 6'2 and ~210 lbs. I ski very aggressively and I like powder, trees, steeps, etc...but I need something that is responsive on the groomers (and everything else) and does not ski like a pontoon. I live in the Pacific NW (Portland), which has...

    telluride

    I was there in early January, 05 and the snow was amazing. I don't know what the conditions will be like next year, but the place has always offered a more "big mountain" vibe. Lots of steep glades and untracked snow. There is not a "new school" vibe outside of the park, which is kinda hard...

    Prior skis

    'Heavy' is probably going to amount to something that I feel like I'm lugging around the pipe, harder to rotate...I know they are made with an Aspen wood core... Did you ride on them? If yes, then I would appreciate any feedback you can give.

    centre mount, or no centre mount?

    WARNING: Do not mount center unless you are willing to give up turning speed. If your used to making quick, tight turns, like you would in the bumps, you will mot like a center mount for all mountain sking. If you spend ALL your time in the park, go crazy....but there will be a difference...

    Deltron

    Del the funkyhomosapien my be the mc you need. By Deltron 3030 is only one of many albums that he spits on. Dan the Automator Produced those sounds on 3030, good stuff, probably his best. But I think Del sucks. Too many words, not enough rythem.
