I have skied the Wildcat tour in the backcountry around Tahoe and Mammoth, as well as inbounds at a few of the resorts. This is my favorite touring ski I have owned to the point I want to buy the inbounds version. This ski provides good float for its width, is playful when you want to be, holds up well to wear and tear, and carves just how you wish it would. I have taken this ski on some fun trips this past season, one being a deeeeep powder day, and I had a blast on these. I then decided I hadn’t had enough after touring, and I hit a resort on my way home and was amazed at how these held up under high speed and with the playfulness I'd expect from my all-mountain resort skis. The skis felt so comfortable that I even decided to ski mountaineer Mt. Shasta with them. With the skin up, I felt like I could sprint on these skis, but on the downhill through some steep chutes or the rolling valleys below, the Wildcat held up and performed just how I wanted. I have yet to find any problems with the durability of this ski as well.
