    Andrew, I was wondering what ski Matt was using? Looks like a reverse camber rockered ski? Have you had any experience with how well a ski like this handles on the skin track?

    Hi John – I forget exactly what ski Matt was using on this day as he had shuffeled some gear around and was using a borrowed pair of skis. I remember them being big and wide, but don’t think they had reverse camber. I’ve skied on similar big, wide, reverse camber skis at resorts, but have never used them for touring so I don’t know how they would handle skin tracks.
