ARV 86 in powder

Getting my brand new ARV 86s out of the shop today mounted -1.5 behind true center. But tomorrow killington is getting over a foot of fresh powder and this these are 116-86-110 tip, waist and tail. How well are these gonna perform?

Not great but you'll live. Powder skis didn't always exist
 
I fucking died on arv 86s in a foot of powder in sunday river. I was a much worse skiier back then and it was like wet nasty powder. Was also kinda my first real encounter with powder. You will be fine if you know what your doing, but if you were clueless like me good luck.
 
Ok, they did pretty good in powder, not the best tho. Not super maneuverable, especially in the trees. But for an 86 underfoot ski they did pretty good
