Is it the same slightly softer core profile as the FR110 (I mean vs the 113)?Quote:

Sounds like someone should sign up for the email list ;)Quote:

But all are going to be super smooth, and nicely responsive
So do the R110’s fit in with the race room R87/99/120? Is there metal?
You're a goddamn genius. Exactly what I was hoping to hear... something between the FL113 and the FR110. Cheers.Quote:

There were a few other skis on my list, but this finishes my thinking.
I'll work on it. I wasn't prepared to buy skis right now.
(and email list signed... my bad ;-)
Oh great. More email. Just what I need. ;)
I have been half paying attention and I’m trying to pull together what the hell is going on with the R110. I didn’t pull the trigger on FR110 earlier because I bought a bunch of other stuff like a car and a wife and then Christmas and honestly the graphics didn’t really do it for me for an already bloated quiver spot, but I’m paying attention again.
What’s the timeline on those guys? Dimensions/specs? Take my money.
ETA: oh I see now. Thanks for the breadcrumbs gaijin. Hum….
I have a grievance, Marshal.
Your website says the 110 are $699 in the category listing but then when I go to the product page it tells me $700.
This is truth in advertising shenanigans and I demand my $1.00 plus appropriate punitive damages.
In the "R" column on the Mount Distance Table on the FR110 page, there is a 180cm and 193cm size... will the 193 R110 be available in Fall 2024?
I came here to say that I see there is a mount point listed for a 180cm R110... will we see that at some point?Quote:

Late to the party.
Wasn't paying proper attention to Marshal's cutting edge shenanigans but just snuck in under the wire.
Picked either the second to last, or the last one!
That rocker profile looks perfect to me. (for a ski like this).
I will promptly start squirreling away the funds!Quote:

110 @ -6. Looks kinda weird to be more towards the front than the others. Maybe not.
That sounds awesome and more usable than the fl skis with the lack of open terrain here. Justification plans starting. My ski quiver is currently all black and that needs to change so hopefully they stay colorful.

How are peeps finding the durability on these skis? Skiing Bridger bowl right now is a commitment to hitting rocks if you want to have fun. So I keep telling myself I’m gonna keep them on the shelf until we get a 30 inch base. But I’m itching to start skiing them and realistically I’m still gonna hit a ton of rocks when we get to 30 inches. Should I just become the durability tester??? Or will patience pay off for this old grasshopper?

I’d say give’r
They are put together as well as anything
And if you crunch a ski badly, I’ll take good care of you
Durability is the best I've ever seen, with the FR builds (not enough days on the C builds to really comment). I know I'm biased as fuuck, but these are up there with Igneous skis, which is about the highest standard I know.

I hit a few rocks at Snowbird in early December, and skis held up just fine. Gummy stone took off the burrs, bases merely had some surface scratches not even worth filling.Quote:

I was bouncing off rocks up in Revy back in December, and hit one with my FL105s that would have destroyed every other ski in my quiver -- along with most likely my knee -- but they kept on trucking. Slapped some ptex in there and back at it. Both the FR and FL are insanely well built.
I'll be curious to hear how you get along with them at -6. I'm trying to decide where I'm going to mount, leaning towards -7.Quote:

It’s gonna be awhile. I’m not sure I’m even going to be on these for at least another three weeks or so.Quote:
