I rock a set of Bandit B2s currently and am looking to get a more off-piste/backcountry specific ski. I've owned a set of Vokle Snow Rangers and a set of Atomic Heliguides in the past so I know what I am getting into with a wider ski. I have an opportunity to purchase 1 of the following sets of freeride boards so some feedback would be great:
07 K2 Apache Chief
07 Solomon 1080 Gun
07 Rossignol Scratch BC
06 Rossignol Bandit B4
Yea I could go for a newer ski but I don't see where I have to spend the money as I can get a super deal on the 4 named above. I'm 6' and around 205-8lbs. I'm not as aggressive as I was 10 years ago (just turned 50) but I still like to ski the backside and find the deep stuff. The B2's did it for awhile but I don't want to work that hard in soft Sierra/Mammoth mank anymore hence the wider ski.
