2024 Ski Review Schedule ( so far )

[Horton]

Skis will be reviewed in the following order. I ride each ski for approximately 20 rides and that can take 3 to 4 weeks. Skis are reviewed in the order that the physical ski arrives at BallOfSpray HQ.

1. Parsons Pineapple
2. Goode Ventura
3. Denali C95

[DvarianDan Johnson]

C1? 

[Adam Caldwell]

@Horton, since I didn't send the c95 for a review, theoretically you don't need to wait to ride it.  Just saying.

Let your tournament scores do the talking.

[Horton]

@DvarianDan Johnson Good Question. I need to talk to Connelly about that. Looks like I am going to burn A LOT of boat gas this summer.

[BlueSki]

@Horton Caldwell raises a good question. Do you always keep a ski on the sidelines, completely unridden for over a month in some cases, before taking a set in order to keep your progress on an existing review uninterrupted?

[Horton]

@BlueSki sort of. When review skis get backed up the only practical thing to do is to ride one at a time.

Looking forward to the full pineapple review. 
I’ve never had more confidence and fun than on this new ski from Parsons Project.

Come on @Horton I know you are dying to try it! The C-95 is calling your name, Horton, Horton try me first.

Ion 3?

What was the last D3 that got reviewed? Evo in 2018?

[Horton]

@switchbackr

I have heard nothing but good things about the current skis from D3. If you are interested I suggest that you contact www.PerfSki.com and try one out.

I have a more than amicable relationship with the management at D3 although they are not a business partner. Review skis generally come from business partners or emerging ski companies. 

 

@VONMAN 

ski reviews take time and the long-standing policy is to review the skis in the order they physically arrive at my door.

@switchbackr D3 ski reviews pretty consistently conclude with: “The D3 _______ is now one of my all-time favorite skis” 😊

[BGrow76]

Has the Pineapple review started? I assume the mystery ski is the new Goode Ventura?

[Horton]

I just got off the water with Pineapple ride number 5.
