I'm heading up to Cypress tomorrow and I'm going to give skiing a try. I switched to snowboarding about 26 years ago and haven't tried since. I was a decent skier before I switched though.
I'm wondering if the performance rental is worth it vs. the regular rental, I don't know too much about skis, here are the available performance skis:

I'm going to have my son with me so it's all groomers, greens and blues, no pow. That's why I'm thinking it's not worth it for the performance setup.
