DPS Wailer 112RP (aka my wallet is in for a beating)

[rabbit]

My whole quiver may be taken over by dps, must resist

Resistance is futile.

Those look like Zags with tip rocker. I'm not sure I'm sold on the super-carver sidecut either.

SS on the other hand... looks awesome!

Based on dimensions, it looks like a rockered 192 bro that is 2mm narrower throughout. The big bro definitely isnt a carver, nor would I say that it is hooky.

This looks good.

Big bro has a 35m sidecut, not 20 (or 22-24, which a 200 w/ the same dims/shape would probably be).

Judging this ski based on three given dimensions alone is doing a bit of disservice to DPS here as there's more to the 112 than what is seen in the pictures posted in this thread. Both the tip and tail have an elongated balloon look similar to the Armada JJ.

Doh! Not thinking. I hit my head today.

will they be about $1000 and made in China? awesome. stop kissing this guy's ass. Yeah, I know, it's got carbon-fiber in it. I think that was a big buzzword about 5 years ago. I'll give you $200 and a box of dog treats for the slightly butterface stripper lady.

^^^ I dont think anyone is just simply kissing his ass. If you have ever skied DPS they are definitely different. Some people love the feel of them. Personally I didnt care for the 120s, but this new shape and new construction have me intrigued. If you want real ass kissing around these parts there are plenty of other indy manufacturers that are the BEST EVAR in every single post

+ surely the 18m sidecut is because there is a short running length on hard snow because of the tip/tails. once the ski is in soft snow the 18m seems kinda irrelevant

ass kissing dudes here are those who skied the DPS and want more, me included.

you are a fucking child.

DPS has been and is doing things with skis that other manufacturers, boutique and corporate, haven't even conjured up in their wildest dreams.

[schindlerpiste]

Haven't seen these mentioned elsewhere but these look mighty sexy (notwithstanding hotties holding them in 1st pic)

Look a bit like DPS's answer to the S7

More like DPS ans. to the Lhasa Pow.

What do you base this on? Name one defining characteristic that bears a closer resemblance to the lhasa pow than the s7 (save carbon layup).

[schindlerpiste]

Just that when I saw, and fondled, this ski, that is the thought that came to mind.
Shape
flex
tip.
S7, other than the Supa7 is a noodle. This ski is no noodle.

Come on, every ski is a copy of something PMGear puts out. Didnt you know that? I cant even figure out what other ski companies made before Bros were around to copy?

Now back to your regularly scheduled topic
