Hi, having owned this ski and having used it as my main ski DD for some years, and beyond that for maybe half a dozen years plus total, I sort of agree (on groomers) and sort of disagree (on rough uneven and new snow, etc.), I guess. One caveat, I had the second longest version (@ 150 lbs/5' 10"), not the longest: the longest might have been more big charger.
The Experience 98 handles like a very aggressive, heavy, grabby-carve and stable fat GS sort of ski, with a bit shorter turn to it. Man, it really grabs the turn carve after initiating, and is a lot of fun; very stable, on groomers or rough groomers. But this ski has limits, in terms of versatility. It does not do well in variable/uneven off piste; it is heavy and awkward there and in bumps. A lot of work. Not a crud ski. Not a powder ski, unless there is little enough for things to not get uneven or rough, for it to bash through (and it does not do this at the level of a true charger, only some camparison). Not a tree ski either - just so heavy and awkward there.
(The Sender Squad also has this problem a bit, but partly makes up for that with its super stability realm otherwise - just too heavy and wide for big-tight bump/trees or lotsa demanding bumps one can't hero carve through, though the Sender Squad is better in off piste uneven, moguls and crud by a lot than the Experience 98 - if one can hero carve at speed (not straight line/jump, as the Faction CT 3.0 194 wants to do). Also, to eliminate the skis' heaviness, the Rossi management recommends moving this ski's mount point forward, as I've explained elsewhere. The ski gets mucho "turny" then.)
(The Black Ops 118 moved forward - I accidentally left out the "118" in my last post that mentioned this ski as a charger - does not have the same problem - not tending towards cumbersome. It is only 186, if that, and thus is fast but not like the Sender Squad 112. The 118 does charge, though, and is not troubled by almost any level of chop/crud on a powder day (for a lighter to mid sized skier, at least), in that way bombproof as any big time charger - again, except for the probable skier size limits. At the same time, the 118 is a true finesse ski also: it can finesse feather a turn, any turn, tight or long, just so fun for the right skier profiles.)
For me, at the time of the Exp 98, I was relieved to move on, to a combo of the Atomic Crimson TI 88/179 for old snow and the Atomic Ritual 102/182 for soft snow. Both those skis are sort of outdated now also, but at the time they shined, relatively speaking, for me. They were each a step better, in their respective realms, than my much-used Experience 98s.
