There is a silly part of me wondering if I ever scoot on some XC ski closeout, that I thought I'd better be prepared beforehand rather than late.
I own the Pavos which is basically a skinnier version of the Orion.
Pavo: 73-60-67 (mm)
Orion: 85-70-80 (mm)
Now, I'm wondering that it would be nice to have a fatter ski when I'm breaking trail (which I seem to do alot because I tend to get to trailheads very early, like to go on non-popular trails in small parks and forests, and also tend to do ungroomed golf courses D) and trails alike. The Pavos would be great track/mixed use but I thought if I could cash in on as good a deal as I got on my Pavos on the Orions, it would be cool to have for early season XC skiing on ungroomed powder. Has anybody actually tried both models and tell me how much a difference the extra ~10mm of width would affect it. Looking at the other models, like the Karhu Pyxis, it doesn't seem that much different than my Pavos, no?
