Its lucky that the Sego Big Horn 96 is noteworthy in its versatility.
In the interim, I had plenty of time to stare at the skis and examine their every detail.
However the hard wearing textured nylon topsheet did mitigate this to a degree.
The Test
Now to the on-snow performance.
I definitely found myself charging around more aggressively than I normally would.
Theyre easy and comfortable to ski, without sacrificing in the way of high end performance.
I put them on and felt near instantly comfortable, which is not often the case.
And when you take them to the park, they mostly do a good job there too.
Yet with a base patch/grind, theyd be pretty much good as new except for a few topsheet chips.
The rocker, while significant, is quite flat and has no curve towards the extremes.
That meant nollies on anything other than a completely solid surface, were frankly terrifying.
The same issue arises with both the nose and tail landing when in tight transitions.
I dug both tails in landing switch in Zermatts miniramp and learnt that lesson the hard way too.
But that isnt really a surprise when you consider that these skis are from their all-mountain lineup.
Of the 95-100mm skis Ive tried recently, they are certainly the most mountain oriented.
For that kind of skier, these are a great option and definitely well worth checking out.
