Cypress_Gardens_1 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I am fairly new to slaloming. this would be my first year that i am semi profisient at it. currently i can a course at -15 at 28 and 30mph i am doing this on my bosses old cypress gardens that is 68in long . my point of this is i am in the market for a new ski and am willing to spend a little on it cause i really enjoy it. I dont know if it woud be wise for someone with my experiance and go all in and buy a ski like the Obrian elite or like the HO A1 or A2 or get more of a basic ski and get a better one later on down the road.

Baller jipster43 Posted June 20, 2012 Baller Share Posted June 20, 2012 The Radar Senate, Senate C, or Strada are said to be awesome skis for those new to the course. I was at your level and skied on an elite. I don't think it held me back, but I've been skiing better on my new Goode Fire (22' off). If I was to do it all over, I would probably have gone with the Senate C to begin with. Good luck and welcome to your demise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller ForrestGump Posted June 20, 2012 Baller Share Posted June 20, 2012 Senate C is an awesome ski for someone working their way up in speed in the slalom course. I highly recommend it. You can find them relatively cheap too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashman Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I'm about at your ability level and skiing on a Radar Vice; loving it. Same shape as a Strada but damper and forgiving and not as much $ as the highest end skis. Lots of ski for the $. Don't take my word for it listen to Horton http://www.ballofspray.com/forum#/discussion/5141/2012-radar-vice-review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
