I had tried out my Scott Punishers at MK back in the autumn and they seemed really easy to live with, but then the MK fridge is no real test. Good snow in Switzerand gave me the chance to get stuck in and I'm very pleased with the skis.
Very easy to turn, smooth and cruisey on piste, lots of float in the soft stuff, surprisingly good in the bumps, and held a good edge on a steep black or two :D :thumbup:

Oh and ise thought they were "the Movement Chunder" or something similar :lol: I think he must covet a pair really )

Here they are attached to my feet whilst exiting an off piste itinerary and chasing after ise a couple of weeks ago...








I only caught up with him on flat sections as my wax prep seems to be better :D

He's lost a bit of weight by doing lots of trekking in the past year, so it's a real possibility, even though he's 8" taller )

Well, either my Wax prep is better,as I said earlier, or perhaps you were taking power naps whilst waiting for me...and consequently I whizzed past :D
