Dynastar Nothing But Trouble Skis 2008

My first pair of skis.

I am a Webbski snowboarding instructor in Snoqualmie Pass. Nearing the end of the 2007/2008 season, I picked up skiing, researched equipment purchase, and finally selected these Nothing But Trouble (NTB).

Snoqualmie Pass is well known for its terrain park and 450 feet halfpipe. It is also known for the Cascade Range concrete powder, and the 07/08 season was no exception. At the peak traffic of a busy skiing day, the groomed run turns into fields of crud and moguls made of wet, packed snow.

NTB handled Snoqualmie Pass' conditions very well from my experience thus far, the relatively small (16m) turning radius due to a semi-drastic sidecut gives the skis reasonable maneuverability while allowing for some serious speed buildup, and the Terrain Park was a load of fun with NTB; they acted like trampolines every time I nailed an aerial.

These skis also received praises from my fellow Webbski instructors for their "awesome design" and bounciness.

I have been identified a type-II skier by senior instructors at the time this was written, hope intermediate skiers find this summary useful!

i compete in a semi pro tour and i have gone through numerous sets of skis and so far the dynastars have been the most comfortable and the most durable skis.

I went up to use the nothing but trouble skis for the first time at Loon Mountain on a two day trip. The first day there were great conditions and some powdery areas. The skis handled great through the powder and i didn't notice any trouble at all. That night is rained and a lot of the snow was washed away the next morning. They went through the ice like it was nothing and handled well on all the scraped up areas. I definitely recommend these skis since they handle well and are pretty light weight. I have not made my way into the park yet due to those conditions but i plan to.
Unfortunately, on the chairlift I accidentally rubbed my pole against the skis and it easily made a scratch where I think is the only con of these skis, but what bad is a little scratching when you have a great pair of skis

these skies are the best skis i ever had

The skis handle incredibly well in powder/ backcountry skiin terrain and conditions. The only downfall to these skis is the instability when riding on packed ice or icy conditions. The edges tend to slide out a little, especially in icy/slick conditions.

They are great in fresh snow and on the groomers. Most fun can be had out in the backcountry or in the freshies.

nice skis overall. just need a little more flotation on powder and would be the best skis ever!!!
i use them with telemarks bindings and it's great.
moggles, jumps, backcountry, everything's fun with that ski. but speed and race aren't the purpose!!!
