Improvements over the original construction have made this much more than a powder ski. A new construction, wider overall width, deeper sidecut and stouter flex give you 4 more reasons to cash in your sick days. The Work Stinx now has more overall surface area for better float in the pow and the deeper sidecut has improved hard snow performance to the point that it is unnecessary to wait for a powder day to call in sick. Now quit waffling and pick up the phone.
