I am not an athlete, I just like some long & clean turns on easy to medium difficulty slopes. I owned a pair of 2014/2015 Racetiger GS R WC 193/35 for my amateur lazy-fun freecarving on wide empty slopes in the mornings. Let's say I really loved the overall "feel" of those skis - turn initiation, grip and so on. For me truly enjoyable, even in imperfect conditions. I sold them to get a pair of Augment GS 188/30 2019 (medium stiffness), and now I regret . The Augments may be great skis, but I just don't feel the connection like I used to with the Racetigers. I am unable to determine why, but I find them boring. As if the turns don't bring as much joy as the Racetigers used to. I know that 193/35 and 188/30 is a different ski, but I believe it's about something else.
Now, I'm not sure if I want to give the Augments a chance and continue breaking them in (they are practically 100 % new) and pray that they become something I like. TBH I don't want to. I would rather buy some Racetigers again - but I wonder whether the new 2020+ models follow the same concept. Unfortunately, I don't have the opportunity to try them.
