Just goes to show that no matter how wierd or funky the ski, there is some set of conditions and/or some skier for which/whom it is ideal.

Marquette: 140 long; 150-130-140 (seriously wider than the Hok).
Hok: 125/145 long; 124-110-122.
Due to it's skin, Hok probably climbs better (a bit easier to find a good line), but is less durable.
Anyone seen both in action on the down?
