Collin Collins has been giving his <a href="http://www.evo.com/skis/k2-hellbent-2011.aspx#color=34666.Image.1.jpg">2011 K2 Hellbent Skis</a> the business at Alta Utah. Check out this video using his new Contour HD POV camera in awesomely creative ways. Sounds like the boys (Collin Collins, Brady Perron, and Josh Bishop) have been touring Little Cottonwood Canyon almost a dozen times already and the lifts aren't even open until this weekend. I would like to see more edits from Collin as the season gets underway.

Three years ago I was lucky enough to find myself in possession of a pair of K2's Limited Edition PBR Brewskis.  Originally I didn't plan on mounting them, instead they were going to grace the wall above my wax bench due to their rarity. I eventually decided a ski that unique deserved to be ridden, and for the last three years they've been my boards of choice on most days. 

Things have changed in the last couple of seasons though, with all of the kids talking about rocker this and rocker that, so I've slowly come to the decision to retire the Brewskis to the shop, and that means I need to replace them with something equally versatile.  Fortunately I've got a few specialized tools in my quiver, including some Pontoons for deep days, old and Salomon Gun's for park days.  That means the ski I replace the PBRs with needs to be versatile enough to ski pretty much anywhere, but more than anything it needs to be well rounded (and like I mentioned, it's gotta have rocker).

Based on my above criteria I've narrowed my choices down to <a href="http://www.backcountry.com/armada-jj-ski" title="Buy the 2011 Armada JJ Ski">Armada's JJ</a>, <a href="http://www.backcountry.com/k2-obsethed-alpine-ski" title="Buy the 2011 K2 ObSETHed Ski">K2's ObSETHed</a> or <a href="http://www.backcountry.com/rossignol-2010-11-s7-koopman-ski" title="Buy the 2011 Rossignol S7 Ski">Rossignol's S7</a> all of which are rockered at the tip and tail with camber under foot for cat tracks, traverses and harder days.  Also, all three of these skis get rave reviews from pretty much everyone that skis them.

Read on for more comparison between these three sticks, and if you have some input on which one I should ski this year sound of in the comments.]]></description>
