Just when you thought that Icelantic couldn’t outdo the Shaman they come up with the Keeper, and it’s a keeper. The early rise tip and tail is amplified by the the traditional camber underfoot. The Keeper will float like nobody’s business in the pow and power through manky crud like Marv Heemeyer went through Granby. Quick to accelerate and incredibly stable, if you like big fat skis the Keeper could be the one for ski for you.

Dislikes

The Keeper I tried was the 189 cm model and I think I would have preferred the 178 version. It’s a big ski.
