Do to minor injury, I have not yet tried the ski with this particular binding-setup, but have skied the ski before. The ski is very quick and agile, with good edge hold. In any review of the ski it is pointed out that it is very capable for being so light. I think this might miss the point that it is a very capable ski, full stop. Heavier skis might top the Backland in so called crud performance, I cannot fault the ski for this as this simply comes with the territory of low weight. In reading reviews and comments of the ski it appears strong and more aggressive skiers will like it better (and apparently I fall into that category). To my mind one has not have to go short in length, as the rocker and taper (in the tail) is fairly generous (I am 171cm, 78kg, and chose the ski in 182cm).
