These are great skis for most conditions but not for hard packed steep terrain. Best ski I have used in powder, soft moguls or crud, but be very careful on steep hard packed surfaces. They are too soft and can shutter a lot trying to hold a good edge. No ski can do everything, so I don't want to criticize these, but if you ski in the East, you'll need another pair of stiffer skis for more typical New England conditions. In soft conditions, they are effortless to ski. Great for glade skiing or any powder conditions. No regrets buying them except I need to keep another pair for the harder pack days.

Not at all what I wanted. It didn't allow for input from me into checking account, just pick up from bank -- which doesn't allow for knowing what you have in bank -- or how you want the money you've spent distributed across accounts. I returned it. I'm still looking for a resource that will do what I want it to.

I went with the large. Fits my Macbook Pro 15 inch easily plus documents in the same compartment. Comfortable across the shoulder. Large enough front carry section for an extra set of clothes in a pinch for an overnight stay. Great enclosure for an iPad or Surface device. Metal clasp enclosures are not difficult to open or close. I highly recommend.

This was a very engrossing read; a collection of travel essays that will let you enjoyably escape to ...wherever. If you enjoy travel writings, this is a very nice addition to your library. Highly recommended.
