and in two fo the above posts are some of the worst mountain skis made.
Simmons gen 1, slydog 8's, C&A, and proclimb skis... all on my list of worst skis for mountain riding ever made.
Great skis for meadow mashin... worthless for technical riding.

We were out in Colorado a few weeks ago with a C&A rep testing different skis.. and I have to say we found the right cut on the skis they worked awesome for technical riding. A local we were riding with tried them out and said he couldnt believe how much better the cut C&As worked than other ones hes tried. He wasn't partial to any brand either. We started with a set of mtxs and cut them in various spots to help with sidehilling etc. We rode trees almost all day and we never had any problems.
I'll admit, IMO nearly any ski with a cut would be better in technical terrain.
We cut some gen 1's a buddy has and they're a HUGE improvement. I always thought about cutting my C&A's, but knew I could sell them for a decent bit to someone if I didn't. I loved them in SOME situations, just not technical stuff, and any time there was less then 2' of snow.
I'd be curious to try the ones you mention... like I say I liked SOME of the features of the C&A... imo without the hard wide square back edges they'd do well.
The fact that these comapnies can't figure out simply physics when it comes to skis is disappointing... The answers are out there, it seems like C&A is at least trying to hunt them down now!
