Reverse Sidecut radius
I am thinking about designing a powder board with a reverse sidecut radius. Anyone tried a board or ski with a reverse sidecut radius? What were the positives and negatives?
Skied Armada ARG's last season a few times.
Now I'm hooked. Not fun or easy on the groomers getting back to the lift but that's not what they're about is it?
If your looking for something for just heli or catskiing do it!
If your using them on the lifts put a bit of sidecut or at least straight under foot so you can turn them on the grooms/cattracks.
Just built a pair for myself, look like shit (see my 11/12 log, Not the prettiest skis I've made! ) but should be fun.
Really quick turns, can side slip them in the deep stuff.
Amazing in the tight trees, float like...
Don't know what else to say.
I'll let you know after I've had a chance to ski on my own but what I've experienced on the ARG's I'd say go for it!

You don't even have a legit signature, nothing to reveal who you are and what you do...
Best of luck to you. (uneva)
