Summary (inc. Strengths & Weaknesses):
Designed as a powder ski, the Yvette excels in powder and sierra powder, and doesn't quit performing when things get tracked out and choppy.
Even though she was not designed to ski groomers and crud, I was pleasantly surprised that Yvette didn't punish me when I was ready to head for the car at the end of the day and took her down some beat up groomers.
Inspirations: DPS Yvette inspired me to charge big pillows of snow and leave my signature in the untracked glades and trees. She did not, however, inspire me to lay down RR tracks on groomers.
Yvette and I get along juuuuust fine!
