Hi friends!
I had a quick question though maybe you can help me with as you are a riders too! I am absolutely torn on my decision between the Blunt XL and the Condor Rockered. I currently own a 99cm full camber carbon pro from Summit and find it great for the groomed runs on the east coast here. However im going to be taking a trip out west soon to tackle some serious powder, including cat skiing and I know that this 99cm pure camber wont be the ideal skiboard for it. As we know rockered is key for the powders, and I decided to go full proper rocker to compliment pure camber skiboards because as great as the hybrid camber rockers sound for "all mountain" they simply wont compete properly with a proper pure camber or pure rocker.. Id rather go one way or the other depending on needs. for now.. Having said that..
-Im leaning torwards the Blunt XL because of that youtube video on its sales page showing it can clearly tackle some damn deep powder. The forum reviews also showcase it to be a very good board for groomers and fun too.. it seems to be a fabulous all around board..
-The condor rockered , clearly slightly superior for powder due to its size - but strikes me as a one trick pony if im correct? Is the difference on powder between this and the blunt XL THAT noticable? I almost pulled the trigger on this but it just seems so one dimensional and that groomers wouldnt be fun on this guy...
whilest the bulnt xl has more versatility and seems to go neck and neck with the condor rocker to some extent (powder wise)?
Honestly if the Blunt XLS would handle cat skiing out west fine id much rather pounce on them as im a smaller 5 foot 6 120 lb dude and i prefer the smaller boards !
Any additional advice would be greatly appreciated
Keep in mind my background is / was an aggressive rollerblader in the 90s (grinding rails and such) and my current primary purpose in skiing is fun on groomers and glade in the east coast, some park stuff (getting more) and to tackle my dream of riding insane powder out west.
I would greatly appreciate any tips !!
Thank you for your time
