Shaggy's Copper Country Skis

I bought the 2022 Ahmeek 105's after taking a few runs on a pair of Shaggy's that my brother lent me, and I couldn't have been happier with them last season. I was expecting them to be a good all-mountain skis that made some compromises on differing terrains, but I couldn't have been more wrong. They were a true joy on the long groomers that I rode in Utah. They carve well, and are incredibly controlled when you want to go fast. I didn't get to experience them on a powder day out west, but on the powder I could find they were incredible. I also had a chance to run them through some mixed conditions at Mt. Bohemia, and they made my trip up there one of the most memorable so far. For a pair of skis that are a joy in so many different conditions, I couldn't have asked for anything better.

I ski mainly park, and these skis have held up very well through a year of bashing them on rails and abuse in the terrain park. They also do very well in many all mountain situations, but they are a little skinny when it comes to powder skiing. That's obviously not what they're meant for though so that's not a knock. Overall I love the skis so far and would recommend them to any park rider on the fence about getting these skis.

Got the Brockway 100 for use in the midwest and Colorado. They work well in the midwest unless the snow is all out hard pack then the carves are too hard to initiate due to the width. In Colorado they were great. Skied great in packed powder but excelled in powder. The 100's are great for out west but I would go with the 90's for the midwest.

Like many avid skiers, Ive traveled for years with multiple skis, always dreaming of characteristics that would be desirable in a single ski travel ski. Let’s face it, traveling with multiple skis or even trying to swap out once on the mountain is a pain. I want, no, need, versatility to ski the entire mountain. The Ahmek 105 with nanomag is the ski Ive dreamed of. This ski is FUN. Trustworthy. Predictable until it isn’t (ie fun, see comparison to WRT below). It’s a workhorse and I will be buying the 115 for next season for deeper/storm days.

This is the 5th ski in my current quiver (Stockli AX, WRT, E100, DPS 106 C2). This ski is lighter than the E100 yet nearly as damp and stable at 50 mph plus. It’s got a kick like my WRT (you read that right). Load this sucker up with shorter turns on harder snow and, not only will the edge be there, but you’ll get some out of the turn ( was shocked by this!). It’s reasonably quick in trees and floats well. The tail is there, but releases on demand. Smears and checks back up immediately. It engages in turns at slow speeds (super important for me, I love edging on cat tracks or mellow slopes). It seems to “want” any turn, or turn shape I throw at it. Tip shape/flex remains stable in chop and at speed (yet it is such a light ski, how!?). All this in a 105 waisted ski, insane! I blindly purchased this ski last summer and, for the first time in years, I am not looking for a replacement in this category.

I am 6’4”, 190. Bought the 186, stock layup/core, added nanomag. P14’s OTL. I do wonder what a longer 188-190 version would be like BUT with the blunt nose the effective length/area appears the same as my 190 Wailer 106’s…

Replaced my old center mount Line Blends with Ahmeek 105s this year. I mounted Marker Griffon bindings 3.7cm forward from the suggested mount point to get a more centered feel to rotate in the air. They worked fantastic in all ways. They're a little fat for groomers but doesn't matter, they handle great. They also are great for skiing switch. They have great grip on ice and handle powder and trees like a champ. They have great balance in the air and are very nimble. I skied my local groomers along with powder, ice, and trees (and rocks) in Winter Park and Breck. Also skied trees, cliffs, powder and ice at Bohemia. It's awesome having skis recognizable as midwestern skis, I recieved a lot of compliments. These skis rip!

I purchased my Ahmeek 105's July of 2021 and outfitted them with LOOK pivot bindings. I never had a chance to demo the skis before purchase so I primarily went off of previous reviews and the blister review posted on the skis.

Needless to say after a few michigan weekend trips and a week trip out to Idaho I am 100% sold on this ski. I am every impressed on how the ski handles in all conditions. On my trip to idaho we had conditions ranging from spring corn to 5-6" of fresh to hard groomers at the end of our trip. It handled all conditions with ease. The ski charged through the ungroomed chop and was a riot to hop off of the runs into the trees and glades. I was very impressed with the skis frontside groomer performance, and the versalitity to go anywhere on the mountain and not worry about swapping skis.

Awesome ski for all conditions, Thanks Shaggys!

This season I skied 30 + days on my Shaggy’s. Conditions ranged from Midwest crud to Colorado powder and everything in between. These skis will handle anything you can put them through no questions asked. Responsive in all turn types. Stable at every speed. Strong quality construction.

Jeff and his crew do an outstanding job. You won’t be disappointed.

Put over 120 miles or 105k of vertical on the Brockway 90s this season. These skis handle everything I threw at them from icy beer league runs(both GS and S) to fresh pow out in Lake Tahoe. The harder you push them the more fun they are.

Just spent my first day, my birthday, on my Ahmeek 95’s. I got Marker Griffon’s mounted true mid. Ski the Adirondacks, that’s where I live. Fresh corduroy in the low to mid teens today. Cannot wait to take them to Gore next weekend. Absolutely love these skis.

I've had all big name brand skis over 4 decades. These Shaggys are GREAT! I have Bell 90s, bought July 2021. At first I was nervous that I got 90s, seemed like a lot of ski for me at first. Wrong. They are so consistent, solid and stable. From pow, hard pack to straight up icy corduroy....these babies slice through it all effortlessly. I've never had a ski that didn't flop and vibrate at high speed. Not once has my Shaggy Bell 90s vibrant at top speed. Just incredible. ❤️ them.
5.4, 110.

I recently moved to the up so I got some powder skis having my old race skis for the groomers but I took them out on the groomers and I was able to carve really well which I was shocked by I love them they work really well.

Just a crazy fun ski!! Smiles all day each time I ride them. Everyone else is spot on in their reviews that the skis do great in a variety of conditions, super stable. I am impressed most by a couple of things: 1) yes, they like mid and long turns, but stupid-easy to put into a number of turn shapes/sizes 2) I am a pretty big/heavy dude (260+Lbs)...many skis in this category I've been able to overpower. The Ahmeek holds up and delivers plenty of response when I step on them. Awesome job Shaggy's!!

Such an amazing ski! These are true all mountain in my experience. I ski in all conditions and these have obliged. My previous ski was not fun in the chop or crud, but the Ahmeeks plow through once the piste gets skied over. They do not wander in the crud, really stable. They seem the happiest in the trees or bumps where they are super quick to initiate turns.

I was a bit hesitant about buying a ski from a small ski company but I am so happy I did, the customer support was outstanding and the ski buying and customizing processes where painless.
The skis themselves both look and ski great, they are truly an all around ski that is the perfect blend of a aggressive and playful ski.

This ski can do it all and do it well! Really stable underfoot and allows for great turn control. I’ve only skied them in Michigan so far and they’ve been great for all weather conditions. My sister got the same pair and loves them too!
