Howdy: I'm a longtime Colorado Epic skier who now has access to a free place to stay in Taos and a season pass. It's been fun this year exploring the chutes and trees of Taos. But it's clear my Colorado gear (several FIS skis SL and GS and a 190 cm 110 underfoot powder ski) are not ideal for the terrain in Taos. I've been using a 72 underfoot Vist ski but hate to ruin the sweet Italian bases, and they're too narrow for deep/heavy snow on Kachina peak.
Looking for something used because of Taos' rocks. I don't want to worry about core shots. Also something fairly short and manuverable (I'm 5'10, 170 pounds) and maybe in the mid-90s underfoot range.
Any ideas from Taos locals or those who know the mountain better than me?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
