obrien seige

[Frank Smith]

I'm looking at buying a new ski. Is the Obrien Seige w sector boot any good?

I believe that the Siege was OBrien's premier ski before the Sixam came out some years back (I could be wrong on that). I had a friend with one and he seemed to like it. If the price is right and it is in good condition, you may have a winner.

From experience, just because "everybody" or "every magazine" says a ski is great, that doesn't mean that you will like it or you will feel comfortable on it. I had a Connelly F1 and Concept, great skis, I hated both of them.

Good luck.

Sounds like an average price for that set up.

Well I decided to get a Radar Senate instead. I heard its pretty good.

I have a Siege. I find it stable, but slow and a bit heavy. I think you will find the same thing with the Senate except for the weight, it might be a bit lighter, but basically from the binidings.
