I am new to park and going to ski off-piste and trees(very shallow powder) next year, don't know how to choose between 88 and 94, maybe 94 is too wide to make turn on groomers or trees? Want to hear your thoughts thanks!😆

[@DasYetiSkiing]

I would probably recommend the 94 but, it also depends on what resorts your skiing. If you were skiing on the west coast I would probably go for the 94 but if you were on the east coast I might go for the 88. Another thing to consider would be what you are doing in the park, whether it be primarily rails or jumps. Or maybe you’re doing mostly in the regular resort skiing where I would go for the wider option. If could get some more information about this kind of stuff I would love to help dial in the right ski for you!

@@DasYetiSkiing I am Chinese, so I have no ideas of the difference between west and east coast sorry😂(maybe more powder in west and more stiff ice in east? I guess, want to hear your introductions) . Resorts here are more like groomers with shallow powder, some resorts have trees but not that powder. I have a pair of Fischer rc4 sc and I can ski nicely on piste, want to try off-piste skiing and start learning jumps and rails next season. I like 94s more but the only thing I am considering is does the width make it less flexible and quick? Thanks!🥳

Sorry I’m in Canada and we usually refer to the different regions out here as East Coast and West Coast, and I didn’t realize that these videos would go so far. Ya, I mean these are going to be very different from the Fishers and with the added width you lose a decent amount of stiffness. Neither of these skis are really going to be anywhere as stiff as the fishers but for the off-piste and trees they’ll be a lot better. I think I might recommend the 88’s so they don’t totally throw you off with the added width and less stiffness. If you’ve already demoed a pair of skis around that waist width and liked it, I would go for the 94’s. The 88’s in my opinion do better in the park overall (might be a bit easier to learn on compared to the 94’s) but the 94’s will do better in the trees and off-piste!
