So the Legend Pro XXL at Bobo's is Mr. Eric Roners. There sale stock won't be in till Oct 1, so they have it for scratch and sniff. As far as being softer and lighter it is. Dynastar milled out the tip and tail to reduce weight and have a nice even flex. From all accounts, the ski rips as a hard as 194 LP'S, but with more float. Can't wait.....
I've had some delam issues with Dynastar, and I know of other people. Their customer service sucked, they delamed after 9 ski days in February, and they didnt sell me a crash replacement until the beginning of next season. Their skis ski nice, but they are made to be disposable. The topsheets are made of crappy wood, and get scratched and gouged easily. Just spreading the word.
i second that^^^
You should have seen how official his letter looked, and he was completely ignored
I just got some 181 Scott P4s (the ones w/ the old 70s sunset graphics that has askier doing a mule kick) a couple weeks ago and I am really excited about them. I had the 183 Volkl Gotamas last years and loved those. From people who rocked the P4 they were very close to the gotama. The flex seemed almost identical, and the width of the ski was a little wider in the tip, waist and tail. Those skis will be sick to rock at altabird with my new Rossi 185s:D :D :D. For all of you telling me to get a longer ski, have the 193 Sanouks, I like having variety of a 180s skis & 190s ski depending on the conditions.
I saw them. They scared me.Quote:

did you ski the 7tm powers?Quote:

I liked them a lot more than the all-mountains (probably because I'm bending traces)

On that note, where is the best place to mount Nordica 190 W105s? :D
Here's a thought.
Freeskier mag recently set up the Snowpedia, a skiing WIKI. Current categories are Resorts and Athletes. It's definitely a work in progress, but it seems like the info in this thread might be better suited to a WIKI.
We could try to get Freeskier to create another category, or we could try to set up a WIKI elsewhere.
Thoughts?
The powers are definitely nicer than the AM's with TRaces but they seem to be fine so far with T1's.Quote:

Okay, so leave the Freeskier aspect out of it.
As a structural issue, it still seems like a useful thing to WIKI rather than thread.
Recemending 190 Iggies with 920's would be a great idea for some 16 yearold to use in the park :nonono2:Quote:
