Westcomb Vapor FX Pant - Men's

December 6, 2010

How waterproof/resistant is eVent? I know this is often reviewed as more breathable than GTX pro shell, but I definitely want something that will keep water out even if it becomes saturated and will no longer breathe. I usually ski in wet conditions (SE AK, so like the PNW but worse), so waterproofness/seam seals are huge. I skied in my fishing rain gear too much last season.

how do people feel about a 215lb rider and non-coilover rear suspension? Am I going to be changing seals every other ride or is it not such a big deal?

Black Diamond Megawatt Ski 08/09 Model

November 18, 2008

I'm debating between these, Hellbents and Rossi S7s (largest size in all models). I'm 6' 240#, replacing a pair of 195 AK Launchers (original, aged). I ski fast, as deep as I can find, and usually try to stay forward; I'm not much of a jibber, which is why I'm not immediately going for the HBs, although they are a strong competitor. I'm leaning towards the megawatts because of the more forward skiing focus and the volume of glowing reviews here. The S7s seem like they have the most progressive features, but I'm wondering if they sacrifice forward performance for switch performance. I don't know why, but I'm leery of Rossi. Maybe it's just latent foam-core stigma. The slightly friendlier (if only slightly) price tag of the HBs is a draw. I'm indifferent to the graphics ;). Whichever ski I end up with will be part of a two ski quiver with 195 mod x pros (also original model). Any advice appreciated...
