They are SLP Powder Pro skis/ I love them, they are pretty aggresive which is what I like. In mu opionon WAY better the the DS2 skis. The response fro carving in the fluff is awesome.

how much $$ ??

Looks like you did some personal mods to the skis..... Does cutting the outer edge like that help out with side-hilling???

I bought them last year and had them on my Freeride as well, cannot remember the exact cost, I bought them from Recreational Supply in Saskatoon, somewheres around $500 with tax I think.

I was wondering if people would notice that ski cut, its a little trick I picked up from riding with Brett Rasmussen. Yes it does help with the side hill and counter steer. It also helps the end of the ski roll over any obastacles as well when counter steering. In more heavy/hard snow they tend to bite more because of the sharp edge at the back. I was going to round off or make another angle cut at the back to try and make it a little better.

I forgot to mention I think the skis are clsoe to 7.5 inches wide vs the DS2 at about 6, I wouldnt want much wider of a ski.

parthunter, I love the pics I have a couple of my summit in the same position! I parked it one time by my dads 2012 HCR, like that.

Circled - Mistake, go ahead no problem. I will be able to tell who you are on the hill pretty easy!
