The monoski quiver is amazing. I really wish I had grabbed one of the Faction monoskis when I had the chance.

Not mine, but a friend just pulled out their skis to prep for the season. I thought you would all appreciate the ultimate dentist couple.

My wife has a pair of 158 mx88 that I got from Vitamin I for beer money. It might be her favorite pair of skis.
Yeah, I found the 168 Kastles for her cheap (~$250 i think w/ clamps?). She's a technically skilled skier and strong. She'd never been on anything like them and won't stop telling my friend how shit his DPS are in comparison.

A very fun ski in the right conditions. They are great in powder and anything soft, more supportive tail than I thought originally so handles speed decently and easy to break the tails when you want. Very surfy in anything untracked but can still get them on-edge on the groomers back to the lifts. They pivot well in trees, though if I were using them for primarily trees I'd be looking at the 185 instead. In heavy chop or cement you do get a good amount of tip deflection which can give your legs a good burn once conditions get more rode-out, leaves me reaching for something else if I know I will be skiing more of those less-than-optimal conditions.
Niice. How long are the RC4s? Those Dynastars need bindings....
Is that a Stockli Asteroid?
Also if that is a Praxis piste jib with the black STHs, I have the exact set up down to the veneer, binding and binding color
Whats the straight tape pull measurement on the Katanas? They are quite a bit shorter than 189 Wrens

They measured between 186.5-187cm. I was kinda surprised too the first time I had them next to each other.

Just wondering for science

SCIENCE!
The Rustlers measured about 185.5.

I keep thinking the old Katana was 191 (not 190). 191 to 186.5 would have been one of the shortest I have ever seen, but 190 listed measuring at 186.5cm is the same as what my Bibby Tours measure, and is probably more normal than something measuring true to listed
