That was the nicest way to tell me that "I'm not a pro-skier. Don't buy those skis...unless of course you plan on using them this way."

Love where this channels going atm with consistent mix of reviews and tricks, keep it up dude

Man i love this series please just keep doing reviews, u get to learn so much and for someone like me thats looking forward to buy a ski this is just perfect

Man, that was a good comparison. I'm still trying to let it all sink in before I take the plunge, but these kind of thorough, laymen's type explanations are definitely getting me there. Again, thanks for taking the time to teach!

A week ago i tried the k2 poacher in laax. Yesterday i brought the new ones and today you are telling me they are exactly what i am looking for! Sidenote: i learned a lot watching your videos and even got to stand my very first backflip! Keep up the good work i truly enjoy your content!

Hey, dude! I got nothing else to say other than I enjoy your videos and you get me excited to ski more. Stay safe, homie.

Thank you very much for all your videos! I´d love to see an Armada ARV review aswell!

Keep up the awesome videos :) always look forward to them

This was very helpful as I am going to be in the market for a new style of ski, something that is wider under my boot as I am seeing more and more of that type of ski.

really like these types of videos

I have the Line blends and they are very very stable for me the underfoot is very sturdy and yes the tip and tails are soft which I love but they also carve super well high speeds I’d 100% recommend them for anything u want to do

K2 Poacher is actually one of the stiffest skis under foot ! Which makes it very versatile but I heard complains from pros, that are not heavy enough and would love a slightly softer flex under foot.

man this video was just awesome both ways...fun to watch

Excellent video!

you do a great job with these videos. very informative,and very understandable. thanks for the work. if you get to chance to test a bunch of 85-90mm in the waist, that would be awesome.

after skiing the poachers for almost a full season i have absolutely fell in love with them. they are the best ski i've had for park. they are stable but i can still swerve around the mountain. they make you feel confident. i have tried the blends in pow and i think they are shit in pow. too soft. the poacher works 100x better in pow.

A little bit of good theory in your own words! 👍

Another great video. Should skis have some markings indicating flex rating etc? What should we look for on the skis?

I’m a slalom skier and I find that slalom skis are fine on snow when just skiing normally but I do wish I had some twin tips for all round skiing on the slopes (off pieced, tricks)

Good alternatives for the first 2 skis are: Line blend= Armada b-dog 2018 K2 poacher= Armada Edollo 2017 or 2018

Ive gone 70 mph on my line blends and have not had any issues. all around good ski and very fun on groomers as well

Great video as always. Can you do the rossignol sky 7 hd, how are they for butters / carving and jumps?

this material was perfect for a green park skier like me

I would love to see a video from you on how you prefer to size playful park and freeride skis, especially related to mount point. For example, Compared to a directional ski mounted at -10, do you upsize on a rockered freeride ski mounted at -4, to get more effective nose, keep the length similar, or shorten it for lower swing weight (an a much shorter nose)? I know there is no right or wrong, but id love to see your preferences. Live your videos!

Thank you for explanation )

great video, thanks alot!

I love this guy

i got some armada el ray's all mountain all park skis and they are stiff af but they are so fun in powder and u can send HUGE jumps and flips on them

Can you check out the ON3P skis, like the kartel (all mountain freestyle) and the Magnus range (park)? Also they are coming out with a wider Magnus next year too

Can you do 4Frnt Vandals. They are my favorite ski to ski on a spring day

Nice video as usuaully, it would be nice if u could rewie armada edollo/Bdog or just place them in one of these categorys. And as some one else sad, can you go through were to set bindings on different skis. for exampel parkskis with rocker can u have the bindning in the milddle.

Thx for the video

you very cool men! Thanks from Russia!

Thank you..!!

Having such a hard time making a decision on what skis to get. I've skid a few seasons now on seasonal rentals and I'm ready for my own pair(s) of skis. Obviously I'd like to just get 1 pair of skis for cost and ease of use purposes. Some days it's just ice and you don't know it's going to be, but I also like to scoot off into the trees and powder every once in a while. I'd also like to start learning some tricks. Some days I just want to cruise groomers, Other days I want to punish myself on technical runs. And then other days the powder is good and you just gotta go find it and ski it. Kind of lost regarding what skis to get lmao.

the blendddddd! #bendyourblends

Do best park skis please!!!

Well said. And the same applies for Snowboards.... I wish someone had told me that 25 years ago through.... ; )

Nice explanations on the different skis. I was a snowboarder im my younger years. Havent been on the mountain for 20 yrs am now 44. I really want to learn to ski and just bought some used K2 apache explorers they are 177cm. I really hope they will work for me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.

Love your videos! Old video I know but can you comment on your opinion between the K2 poacher (2020) vs your daily driver the Bent Chetler 100? Trying to pick my next ski and I want a good twin tip that isn't too soft but can do a bit of everything and can still carve well. I'm an intermediate. Is there even much difference between them?

Can you review the Elan Ripstick 106 as an all mountain ski?!

Yo me too, ive got them like a year ago but didn't ride them even once cause skiareas were closed here in Bavaria, and we couldn't pass the border to austria. Was just skitouring all the time. But im really hyped to try my poachers out

Great explanation. Btw what is the correct height of the skis to have. Does it matter?

I find ski weight is important to me as most modern skis are very light which result in me getting thrown around a lot in cruddy firm conditions and they just tire me out. Luckily I have kept all my old heavier skis that should see me to the end of my skiing lifetime as I dont ski so much now.

You are right you’ll never get a ski that’ll do everything perfect but you can get an all mountain ski that does everything pretty well like the 2017 head monster 108s

Yes i am a beginner amd yes i have stiff völkls... Did not know what i was buying because didnt think there was a that big difference. Kinda regretting it now

Can you do a review to the K2 Press? Because i can't decide if I should buy a poacher or a press.

Any tips for a medium typ ski, been skiing alot when I was younger and have already a stiff pair of Heads. But as you said can't really do butters on them, and basically play around on them and have fun. If someone could point me towards a few good models I would be greatfull (179cm, 73kg / 5'10, 160lbs). Very good video :)

Armada skis would be nice, something like a arv jj or bdog skis

I own a pair. They are a jack of all trades. They are pretty stable, tho they do have a speed limit. Pretty playful too. Good in the powder. They arent the lightest skii, so its not a pure park skii. Its my swiss army knife honestly. It does everything pretty well, but it excels i powder.

Nick Anscombe IMO no chart can tell you what length is good for a specific ski. I like shorter skis for my park skis and longer for free riding and pow. It also depends on the specific ski you’re getting. A good rule of thumb is anywhere between your chin and the top of your forehead when standing up with the skis stood up in front of you. Anywhere in that range won’t be too short or too long

please review the libtech TRS HP

Hi, I have a question. In which type of ski would you set Faction CT 1.0? Maybe it's between the poachers and Völkl Revolt? Thank you

Yeah boy

What are your thoughts on the Blizzard Rustler 10?

Hey Jens, I am currently looking for a ski to begin my park adventure but also have a rather good carving ability ... The main working range of my ski will be carving and sometimes short turn-based. I think for me it will be a good option to sacrifice a bit of power on the slope for a twin-based ski, so I can also progress in my freestyle area. How Soft can I go with the ski until I lose the carving performance? Or is it best to buy a hard ski in favor of a good slope ski, with some freestyle performance? Thanks and Greeting

What about length and weight of the skis? How do I choose the perfect skis for freestyle / jumps? I'm 180cm / 62kg and I'm a beginner in this field.

Hey great vid :-) anyway, I got 2 things on my mind.... 1) seems to me that normally skis for freeride are not only wide, have rocker and are light, but quite often, they are not really curved (thin on waist, thick on the ends) more like almost a straight line or curved a little. Here all of them seem to me kind of quite curved ones, so.... what is actually the effect of this? just the radius, or does it have some effect on anything else? 2) What length am I looking for? ... let's say I want to start a bit of slackcountry skiing, but I got to ride slopes now and then, because of friends....

Any ski recommendations. I just started park this past season and can do 180s, grabs, boxes, and some rails. I almost have 360s down. I have a pair of volkl ledges which are stiff and was liking for something with more flex. I am also a racer and am used to a stiff stable ski. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

stifness in skis is random. in snowboards softer ones are for freestyle (slopestyle, half pipe and bigair) and stiff ones for all mountain and backcountry

I have the 2016 poachers and I want something softer and poppier. Are the 2017 poachers and volkl revolts softer or more rigid?

So I’m just really starting to do ski tricks and I’ve been learning on your standard rental skis,I can hit some jumps,do a half decent 180 or a semi 360 on the ground or rail.i haven’t been able to do it off ramp cause my back catches cause there isn’t a curve in the back.I have used truck skis before and I felt as though it was like skiing on noodles.So should I once I start to buy skis look into the middle bit skis or the first skis P.S.I do like to screw around so the stiffest one is out

@MrFarodo

Curve in the back? For me it sounds like you don't jump off properly (too back weighted, lifting the nose more than the tail). That's when I had mostly problems with catching and edge on the kicker or falling backwards on the landing. But maybe I am just misinterpreting your description.

My first skis were volkl skis:)

Faction freeride are beasts
