just got a pair of 09 nordica blowers with marker griffon bindings, i've had them for about 2 weeks and can't believe how good they are. I thought they would suck on hard pack, but was blown away how nimble they are. i'm 5'11 165lbs and i got the 185's, i was worried they would be a little too much ski, but i couldn't be happier. they've only seen a little powder so far, with nothing but smiles from me . I'm also impressed with the marker griffons, they're nice and light and feel solid, they're perfect for this ski. i'm unleasing them in revelstoke b.c. this weekend, i'll update you on how they perform in the deep stuff.
till then...
