Fat skis

If your skis are less than 90mm at the waist, you should seriously consider renting a pair of powder skis, as they will float you over the snow (and above some buried obstacles) and save your legs so that they will continue to perform for you, and you'll fully enjoy every run of the day.

We have a selection of some of the very best powder skis available on the market, $39/day or multi-days $29/day.  Poles $5/day:

Rossignol Super 7 2012

2012 Rossignol Super 7 This one is for the big boys.  Titanium-reinforced, in 188 length, similar to the S7 below, but stiffer to handle lots of pounding.  A bad-ass big mountain ski - read more at FreshAir

Rossignol S7 20012

2012 Rossignol S7: 115mm at the waist, 178 and 168 lengths.  This reverse-camber, reverse-sidecut fat ski has been a customer favourite for years.  It floats you on top of the pow and makes everything so much easier.  We also carry the women's version, and the teen S7 Pro.  View on FreshAir website

2012 Salomon Rocker 2:  Recommended by the man who invented the twin tip ski, Mike Douglas, when he skied here last year, we tried them out, were impressed with them, and have several sets available in 188 and 178 lengths. View on FreshAir website

cochise2012

The 2012 Blizzard Cochise is the brand new 108mm waisted big mountain ski from their new Freemountain line up. Partially designed by the late Arne  Backstrom, the Cochise features their new Flip-Core technology which naturally gives the ski rocker as opposed to forcing or bending it in. It’s  constructed as a full sandwich ski with metal laminates and a low profile rocker that goes from tip to tail

Rossignol s7w 2012

2012 Rossignol S7W in the 168 length, and the 2011 model in 167.  Great skis, similar to the S7, but with a bit more flex, for lighter skiers. Read more at the FreshAir site.


s7 pro 2012

2012 Rossignol S7 Pro, length 160 My #1 pick for the short light people.  90mm at the waist, there's lots of flex and it's easy to turn.  Designed as a ski for lighter teens, it's a good choice for lighter women as well, and skis more like a 150

 S32010

2011 Rossignol S3, length 158:

98mm wide underfoot, this ski is alsoa great performer for teens and shorter women.  It's a twin-tip ski which skis more like a 150
