Got a damaged ski and was wondering if i should stay with the 6.9s or upgrade to the Ds or Ds2? Off a 08 summit.What are your thoughts?

The ds2 feel like you have a easy steer kit on, the 6.9 fights you when your countersteering they want to pull straight. Had the 6.9 on my newest xp they lasted 3 rides went to the ds2, my other xp has slydogs alittle more heavier steer but not near like the 6.9. I feel it's that little outer keel on them that makes them feel so Bad.

IMO the doo 6.9's are the best ski out there. I bought c&a's 8" mtx last year for a little more floatation and hate them, way to aggressive for me. My son is using sly dogs 7 inch and i didnt like the feel of those either. I havent used the ds2 but i wound not say that the 6.9's are terrible. Ive used a few different skis in the last few years and the doo 6.9s are the best yet. IMO
