“It’s different from the other models because it’s longer and wider up at the top, and it’s a light ski, which I like. It’s a little bit stiffer than the [9700], so it gets wide in the turn pretty well. Hopefully, once I adjust my fin a little bit, it’s going to allow me to get a little bit wider on shortest rope and improve my 39½- and 41-off passes.”
