OK I am getting my ski's. I am 90% sure I want the Curve XS but just want to make sure before I pull the trigger.
I do 80% trail riding and 15% lake riding and 5% off trail. So I am definitely looking for a good trail. I want a good balance of steer-ability and not a tank to turn! I don't want to be dead after a 100+ mile day.
They also will need to be suitable for when I boost it (200-210 hp).
Thanks for the input!

You may want to do a search in the nytro section as this question gets asked every other day.

I have found quite a bit. Just looking for last min suggestions. A lot of the post tend to be a year old. Just making sure I have the most up to date and current opinions!

There are a ton of skis out there that are great for their purpose, but from my impression, as well as other roders who got to test them last year, the Curve's are a great "all around" ski. Much better than a stocker, not as aggressive as some in steering effort, with great manners.
I have C&A Razors on my XTX and my Apex, but if I didn't already have them, I'd have bought the Curves. The Razors may offer teh ability to ride a little more aggressively in the twisty stuff, but at the expense of added steering effort.

OK after hours and hours of research it seems pretty clear that there are a lot of skis that do a certain thing well. But it seems pretty apparent that the BEST ALL AROUND ski is the Curve XS.
So thats what I went with:
Curve XS
6" Round Bar
Cant wait!

Add a set of Bergstroms to that!!! It'll make that set-up even sweeter! The tripple 8"points are the only bar that alot of us will use, awesome wear characteristcs, great bite, low drag.

Nate,
Will they bite too much for an unstudded track? I wasnt planning on studding it until I put the turbo in next summer.
