I'm liking all of this buyer's validation. Had a severe case of fomo and bought the last pair of 189s for this season despite telling myself I had 2 pairs of Bibby pros at home already.

You have chosen…. Wisely
This is the ski I need the least but want the most. Glad the siren song of the 189 is gone… til the next batch, at least.
If I don't get along with the FR132 like I think I will... this is the ski I am going to get to replace it.
Can’t wait

Holy crap, I didn’t know the skulls were swapped for kitsune mask. I’m way into this change. Can’t wait for mine to show up!
Droooool. Wow
KJT, where is your main ski spot?
Sick!
Anyone else think that these new retro Solly Strive [emoji637][emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]]’s would look really good on a pair of [emoji637][emoji[emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji640][emoji639]][emoji[emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji640][emoji6[emoji640][emoji637]]] HB[emoji637][emoji638][emoji638]’s?

Very many yes.
Yes. I went black for discount. But yes.
Those really look amazing
KJT do you have pivots on your HBs (or will you)? Do 115 brakes fit?
I always wondered how the old HB122 would have skied with the tip & tail taper that came on the 132. The 132 was too wide, but it had a more versatile flex. Any chance you’ll turn out a hybrid-bent like that?
Ok, so I’m not 100% sure I’m following, but do you mean a shape like this: https://heritagelabskis.com/products/ultra-taper-122
I think he means a similar shape but with the super soft flex of a hellbent.
he might be talking about both hellbents, which I agree.
the OG hellbent (122mm waist) with the shape of the last hellbent (132mm waist)
the last iteration of the hellbent shared a similar shape with the shreditor line.
I loved my pettitors/shreditor 120, the width of the OG hellbent with an updated shape. One of the best pow skis ive ever been on and surprisingly versatile given how soft, heavy, and wide they are. they skied more stable than their hand flex suggests.
Oh got it. not HL’s 132. That makes way more sense!
stay tuned for the spring launch.
Thanks Marshal for the skis and thanks to Dibbs for having red bindings.
These feel incredible well built look great and the 179 is slightly longer than my 184 Deathwish

Loving the look of that rocker profile. Pretty stoked for these!

I have a strong urge for a pair of these.
Hand flexing
Smooth I would say medium soft tip and tail and feels like it transitions nicely into very supportive underfoot. Didn’t feel like it as a hinge point just smooth transition. Has that Stockli feel to it with the rubber it just feels different. Graphics are amazing in person. My son loved the samari demon skull.
Flex reminds me a bit of gen 1 moment Bibby that was flat underfoot. The og 186 Bibby was slightly stiffer tip and tail.

Red bindings mounted. -5.5 from center I guess I have a thing for that mounting point.

Y'all are killing me!
(Mine are on the way...)
I bought strives for my pair but I’m thinking pivots may be the way. Any thoughts from the crowd?
