Hey,

I had a question about adding a new ski to my quiver. I am currently on 2012 184cm Moment Bibby pros mounted with Marker Barons. I really love them and I ski them everyday... However, I dont want to always be beating the heck out of them cuz I really like them a lot and want them to last. So......

I was hoping for your help on a possibly deciding a second pair of sticks. One ski I am looking at in particular is the Icelantic Nomad. I have heard lots of good things about the company and the ski.

Is this ski something I could use everyday on groomers and in the moguls? Would there be to much overlap with my Bibbys? Also I know there are two different models the Nomad and the Nomad RKR. which would you recommend? I already have my Moments which are rockered so I was thinking about maybe getting the camber version.

Anyway thanks a lot for your help and any other suggestions would be appreciated!

My stats are East Coast 5 11 165lbs pretty aggressive skier I like doing a lot of tree skiing not really into the park. Thanks again!
 
If I was on the east coast and in your situation, I wouldn't go investing in another twin rockered powder ski. I think perhaps a crud buster/charger/everyday directional ski would be a nice complement to your Bibbys. For the east coast, you could go sub 100 underfoot very comfortably. However you seem to like wider skis, so i think something around 105 underfoot would be a good width to shoot for when choosing. Also with the ~105 underfoot they very comfortably could be a your ec touring ski. A couple of options you might want to consider.

I'd just get something stiff and 95-105mm cheap from a ski swap. Explosiv, Mantra, Legend Pro, Squad, etc.
