The Carlos kills it

By Anonymous Departmentofgoods.com Vendor Rep December 20, 2011

I have skied about 20 days on the Carlos and its a very well rounded ski. I highly recommend it for a mountain like Snowbird or Jackson. With the laminate sidewall construction and a nearly camberless (read flat) design with early rise tip and tail its ski everything pretty damn well. In case you are wondering the ski is pretty much flat and not reversed camber. It has quite a bit of early rise in the tip and the tail. Obviously its rips in powder but its also forgiving enough to ski variable or skied out powder for a small guy like myself at 150 lbs. A bigger guy won't have to work as hard as I do. The Carlos does it all really well. It actually skis the hard pack pretty damn well and i don't mean you can just slide around with control on the groomers on the way back to the lift. I mean you can arc big GS turns on hard snow with an edge into the snow. Its a great ski and I highly recommend it for this price.
