Good Points
Best Ski ever. I demo'd in Idaho for a powder day. I was surprised when I got a 174 - I am on Rossignol Enery 9.6s, and at 195cm these are the shortest skis I have ever owned. The Bandits provide great control in deep powder; I skied with complete control in the trees. Kept them another day, and they were great in moguls and skied out off-piste. I was better in every condition than I have ever been. I have skied for 40 years, since I was thirteen. An epiphany! In short, I just bought last years (I has been replaced by the B74 - same ski, new topcoat) for $300, plus $120 for the Axial Ti 120 bindings. SWEET!
