Guitarcarr, I was recently where you are now. I've had the Synchro, Theory, Senate, and Senate C. I picked up a Strada at the end of this season and immediately picked up a full pass. I went from struggling through a 15 off/28 mph pass to completely running the course at 30 mph on my second pass on the Strada. For me (I realize everyone is different) the Strada felt SO much better. I can hardly wait for spring!
Considering all of the ski's I've been through I would have been far ahead with the Strada from the get go.
