- What a day, beginning of the 21-22 season! Ripping the legendary Line Sakana ski. Wow! These things are a true catch! Heading back tomorrow, this time taking a Chance. Nuking now, heard concussions detonated today, chance of upper mountain opening??? Opening Season Pow Part 2!
Cool video. You have skis in size 174cm. How tall are you?
5,8 or so I definitely could have sized down. Some days I wish I had and others I don’t! I guess I’m in between those really something in the middle may be perfect I went this size also due to my 80,-90s influences of the days when we all rode crazy long skis ha ha
nice vid. BTW. how about the ski length？ Line recommend go short. whats your opinion？
Thanks man! I want with the 174 and they feel larger. It's the sidecut, more edges in the snow. I can't recommend these enough, they changed my skiing that season and now on my 2nd season with them. By "changed my skiing" what I mean is the surf feel these have on snow. Also to the way they float on pow... it's magic. I posted some clips from this season yesterday with chesty camera angle and I kept thinking when editing it of how on top of the snow they are in the footage. 8inches of fresh and at speed you just sail across the top 2-3, but when you carve or want to dig it they will open the door to the white room on command. Unreal... O then take them to a fresh groomer and send a roost sailing as you layback and over carving. I am thinking of doing more in depth review of sorts on them but not sure it would be worth the effort as sadly my ski content is the least viewed on my channel so thanks for watching and commenting! What size ski are you riding now? I have been skiing for decades and back in the 90's we all rode ridiculously long ski's compared to now. I had a pair of 205mm Solomon Force 9's ha ha skinny planks but that's what Scott Schmidt rode and he was my hero as a kid growing up in Alaska. I went to a shorter ski once the "shape" ski came to be like around 2007 or so??? Anyway then skis evolved again and once the Rossi Soul 7 was created that was all I rode for season after season. The ski construction and edge design was revolutionary at the time but the Sakana is witchcraft. Unreal mountain magic and swallowtail sorcery.
Now that looked fun!! What Bindings and Boots are ya sporting?
New Marker Griffin 14's, Nordica 130 flex boot.
Wait till you see the next edit. Definitely one of the best opening day(s) ever. The first day was Chair 1 - at 1700 vertical. Day 2 added another 1000 with summit laps! Over 17k vert for the day total and some of the best conditions and footage to date!
Nice ride buddy and a lot of speed too!!!
Heck yeah an app I use had me just over 40mph on the one blaster!
