I only took one run on these. It included medium sized hard bumps, cut up off piste and a soft groomer. The EHP was simply confidence inspiring. Sure footed and easy to ski. Me : I am 210 pounds, enthusiastic but middle of the road skier. I skied the 186.

EHPs are a more all around version of the Renegade. They handle almost everything well and are more stable feeling at speed on harder surfaces. There is almost no loss to the Renegade in soft snow though I found the EHP harder to ski through the trees. The EHP would make a great ski for touring.

This ski is amazing just like my favorite skier Hoji. With zero camber, gradual tip rocker and a flat tail, this ski floats beautifully yet allows for a very aggressive forward stance. With how stiff the ski is though is what I love. This allows the ski to feel extremely stable at high speeds (I found no speed limit) and handle not so fresh powder (crud) with ease. Also, the versatility was amazing. For opening day at Nakiska with icy groomers, they felt like carving skis with almost no chatter. The only thing I do point out is that these are very aggressive skis, if you aren't an advanced skier that is on the throttle most of the time, these skis will own you. Other than that, thanks Hoji for an amazing ski.

These skis are a powerful ski made for skiers who like to charge hard and ski fast. I was lucky enough to take these skis out on a deep powder day and was blown away with their performance. I almost had to change my name to Cliff Hucksable after skiing on them. They were awesome laying huge pow turns and stomping deep landings. Even cruising groomers back to the lift, they held an edge well and I always felt in control, unlike other fat rockered out skis that ride like a truck on hardpack. If I had to call out a shortcoming, it is that these are not a finesse ski. Tight trees are not it's forte, but that's like sending Scott Stevens in to score a finesse goal. Just like Stevens, these are your big powerful ski that got your back when things get deep. So, if you are looking for your big mountain charger, look no further than the EHP. It's got everything you need to send it big.

Since owning these I have been simply amazed, i have not skied anything that handles all the conditions so well. Through the powder you can charge with heaps of confidence and keep a good, aggressive forward stance.

I bought these primarily for the powder days and bought a separate setup for touring but since trying various different skis for touring, I can't help but think my best option would be to fit the touring bindings to these, or get another pair specifically, they're that good!
