mantra beta

Sweet. I think the gotama flex is pefect, stiff enough, but doesn't kill you. Excited to try these.

I'm pretty stoked, a well. I could whittle the quiver down to a Gotama, Mantra, and a park ski! The little lady would be so pleased...

Bring on the 184!

Thank you dude-le-skibum. The pictures have me totally wanting those skis. Even at full price.

Speaking of ski length. A lot of people have been discussing how the ski is damp and therefore must be skied in the proper length to weight ratio.

If I am a hard charging 175 lb expert skier. (no kidding) would I ski it in the 177 or 184?

Why are the 184 too short? Are you only using for powder?

I'm 215lb so tend to ski bigger boards. I have Sanouks for powder days and I'm thinking about the 184 Mantra for post storm days and spring corn. Do you think Mantra a good match for that?

I'd take you up on it dude but I want a pair of unmounted if I get em.

[dude_le_skibum]

with holes in them, they could go to a good family for a little bit less..

dude le,
looking over this post, saw you mentioned the mantra is similar to a lighter feeling legend pro(with a smiliar footprint you said), wondering how youd specifically compare these two all around? powder, steeps, hard pack?

looking to have one of them as pretty much my go to ski.

thanks
