What tele ski do you recomend
|
Ive been riding Karu Jacks for the past 7 years. These are the old twin tip orange ones. They used to ride like a Cadillac but now they have the camber of a rubber band and have multiple core shots. Thus, Im finally converting these to my rock skis. Since I havent been in the ski market for over 7 years Im wondering what tele ski you would recommend. |

you like the giants? |
|
Karhu doesn't make the Jak anymore, but they've got the Team 100 which at 130/100 is pretty close to your desired dimensions. |

I learned recently that Karhu just got absorbed/sold into K2...K2 had been pressing Karhu skis for a while, so I'm hoping K2 keeps the Karhu designs alive, but who knows. It could mean you might find some good deals on them though :) |

Not a tele skier myself but almost all the people I ski with are and they all swear by the Voile Insane, I ski em AT and have been super impressed with them also . |

What do you think? Is there much of a difference in weight between a alpine ski like that and a tele specific ski? And keep the inputs coming in! |

I really like the BD Justice for lightweight floatiness and an ability to put it on edge and carve. |

scottybobs - bought them in silverton at the factory and have loved them. I understand they have some new models since I got mine about 8 years ago |
