Powder Ski for Japan

[tomfallon.]

I'm going to ski in Japan for 7 weeks this season and need a bogger ski as my 178 bacons will be way too short. They are fine for conditions here in australia but i am looking for something longer stiffer and fatter. Im 6 foot 75 kilos and advanced skiier. Will obviously be skiing the trees of Japan. looking for something at least 120 underfoot with rocker and a bit of camber.

All those review we're done in Japan

you can take a look to the salomon rocker 2, Ak JJ, Caylor, petitor.

Im tossing up between the Opus, Pettitor, the rocker 2 and the double helix as i can get these at wholesale prices. How does the Petittor copare to the others in stiffness.

I would imagine it is the stiffest out of those.

I can vouch for the Opus being an EXTREMELY fun ski in the trees. It doesnt charge like the pettitor may, but it can butter the shit out of everything.

Which rocker 2? This years they have a couple the same name.

I could be wrong, but isnt the Double Helix pretty stout?

look at some of the 4 new armada pow skis.

Yeah i skiied the 182 Double Hselix's the other day back at recommended and i was just wondering whether the flex of the petittors is comparable to the relative stiffness of the Doube Helix.
