I’d be ok with that. I blow through the “140” flex xt free frequently.Quote:

Alrighty guys, here's the details on the new Dynastar MLine:Quote:

MPro: directional, metal laminates, shape inspired by the Pro Rider 105 but with a touch of early rise. MPro 90, 99, and 105 (105 is the current Pro Rider with a new graphic, 192 only just like this year)
MFree: progressive, twin, shape inspired by the current Proto. MFree 108, 118
MTour: lightweight touring options using the MPro shape. MTour 99, 88.
They all use a new "hybrid core" which has been used in the Speed Zone skis, basically a PU milled composite with Poplar core. Very connected and smooth on snow feel.
Whole line was designed with the simple intention of choosing your model based on your ski style, and also how clean the Lange line has been (RS-technical/on trail, RX/LX-all mountain, XT: Tour) for shops to understand and sell.
I think the Alien has a vastly different fit that the current F1 (narrower), so this isn't the good news I wanted. I wanted same fit, 110 flex (currently listed at 95), and more upright stance. 100 gram savings would've been sufficient with those changes.Quote:

Anyone heard anything about new airbags?
Looks like I want a MFree 108 and a MPro 90.Quote:

I was going to ask the same questionQuote:

MPro 99: 170, 178, 186
MPro 90: 170, 178, 186
MFree 118: 180, 189
MFree 108: 172, 182, 192
MTour 99: 162, 170, 178, 186
Mtour 88: 156, 164, 172, 180
So no more legend series above the 88x, if at all, I assume?
Is the MTour going to be just a lighter version of the MPro or will it be an entirely different ski?
That MFree 108 is mighty appealing in a 192. Same with the MTour 99 and MPRo 90
Any turn radius info?Quote:

Also reupping my request for info on F20 Mammut airbags, if anyone has seen that catalog.
Will you be doing another preorder round of the LP105 like last year then?Quote:

Radius
MPro 99 186-22m, MPro 90 186-20m
MFree 108 192- 20m
Smaller radius for the smaller lengths, obviously.
That’s too bad on the no more 5 point. Was really hoping for a MPro x106. Metal, higher turn radius. The. X106 is such a fun ski but a beefy one would have been amazing.
M-pro 99 seems like the ski I've been wanting for quite a while. A bit bummed there's no 108 or 116 version but I'm sure if this line does well there will be more
Hnnnhhhhhh those all sound amazing.Quote:

That'll make it a Dynastar-heavy quiver...
2x LP105s, 1x Proto Factory, 1x MPro 90, 1x LFree 108, 1x LTour 99
Will the MPro across the board have metal in them as well?
Yes, from what i've heard: mpro = metal, mfree = glass, mtour = carbon.Quote:

I think folks will be pretty impressed with the M-Pro 99. I skied an iteration in the 178 and was pretty stoked on it. I’d articulate it as a modernized Legend Pro: rocker and taper in the tip; evolved construction, but still damp, stable and smooths out the crud.
The PU hybrid core is pretty noticeable.
I’m in for a preorder 105....

Since we have the right peeps chiming in...how about the Lange XT3? Have they managed to beef up the spine and give it more rearward (and forward) support? I wouldn't mind if it gained some weight.
I'm excited for it. I love my LP105s but sometimes I don't want to be strapped for a ballistic missile.Quote:

Heard from a Tecnica athlete no changes to the Zero G Pro Tour, Scout, etc. any time soon. But next tradeshow season Tecnica will drop a <1kg segment AT boot. Which I'm stoked on considering they made the ZGTP less than 100g heavier than a TLT6M...Quote:

That Salomon boot looks really damn nice. Almost like that Fischer Ranger 130. Maybe it does have some good ramp angle? Is that an Alpine sole block?
Sorry, I can't change 30 years of muscle memory. I'm weird like that.
Hope they put some better loctite on the nut and bolt that acts as the pivot for the walk lever. A buddies fell out up on Shasta, the heavy ass baling wire and Skeletool I keep in my repair kit finally came in handy! Especially since the F1 won't have the dyneema cord to act as a leash if the bolt comes out.Quote:

not too difficult to put some loctite in yourself , prophylactically
may as well dab a bit on the of the other fasteners while you're at it.
then you can spend 75c at the hardware store for a 10 gram spare nut & bolt to put in your kit
These things are awesome. Closest thing I’ve skied since I sold my Gunsmokes. They ski light, aren’t hooky, and are very maneuverable. I’m in for a pair as soon as I can get my hands on my own.Quote:

No, Nordica changed the layup and the core. I did not like the 191 Enforcer Pro, the rep May have to pry his 115 Frees out of my cold dead hands.Quote:

I’m beginning to agree with this. I liked a bunch of the recent pow skis, but nothing just clicked like these 115 Frees have. I’m not one to do tricks, but these made me feel like I could start trying stunts cause I feel like I can do anything with them ever.Quote:

What's your source on this? Whoever's answering questions on the Nordica website disagrees.Attachment 310746Quote:
