i rode some back in whistler this year. they got 6 inches almost everynight, and by the end of they day the snow was chop.
they were perfect. i could rip on them. fast, technical(better word for being a pussy) and in the chop or the fresh snow. steeps and narrows and open bowls. then they responded really well off natural jumps, and were a blast to ride.
make them. make a 95mm underfoot, with moderate stiffness, a damp ride, a nice shape, with retarted durability.!
