ON3P SKIS Discussion

But also they were the first shape to nail the primo balance of RES sidecut primeness with primo primeological flex. Better in pow than some successive iterations, imo. Fast, floaty, and prime. U buy

I'll take "Primo Primeological" for 2 Alex

Found a pair of used 2013 186 BGs. Looks like that year had RES but not ASYM. Any thoughts on how the 2013 version would compare to the previous gen (RES, ASYM) or current Goats? I've skied the ASYM 184 and liked it but would prefer a little extra length for carrying more speed. Worth picking up if price is right?

Super easy to make quick changes along the run but can rollover over the fluffy cows when you need to

Pretty good on groomers and just fun

BGT110 folks: I'm battling hooky, difficult to engage tips unlike anything I've encountered on other skis including woods108 and RES goats. Ski neutral and they don't engage, get on them and they hook up especially in untracked. I'd detune but I'm having a hard enough time engaging them as is. Thinking of moving my mount forward +1. Anybody else do this?

I've been having the same issues on my BG118. Amazing in the soft stuff, wildly terrifying on the cat tracks.

I should heed people's advice in this thread and check the tune.

Planning on good ol fashioned pivots. I never even toured with the shifts on em cuz of the weight and now I've got bc120s if I want some fatty touring

You will not regret the Wren 102 Ti's. I kept reaching for them all season (except powder when the old school BGs came out).

Curious how the 102ti will compare to the M102 when you get to ski it.

Wrens are bit more soft snow specific imho, as you can tell by the shape (remember to factor in that the mantra shovel is a lot wider).

Sure, wrens shovels will pull you into a turn off piste just fine, but not like mantra102s. Mantras will be a bit more engaging on hard snow as well - at least if you are relatively light like I am.

If this sounds negative on the wren then it is not meant to be - I would choose it over the mantra as they are looser, feel a bit more balanced and even happier doing big turns off piste (something mantra102s do extremely well as well). Though to be fair - if I am going to ski a lot of firm groomers then mantras would be a my choice - they absolutely slay the piste.

It’s probably the ski I’m most excited about. This year I found myself using the Wren Pro all the time, even when there wasn’t much new snow. Can’t wait to try it, especially for spring skiing where I think it will be unstoppable.

I’m really interested to see how they do in bumps. When the bumps got big, the wren pro was a serious leg workout. The 102Ti looks to have more tip and tail rocker, but I also got them 3cm longer than the pro. Should be interesting.

I even bought inbound boots during end of spring sale so I can enjoy the BGs as much as possible instead of being a bit compromised with hybrid boots and bindings

The Wren102tis (189s) rip impossibly hard, but are fairly easy to turn in the tight spots too. They're so very damp, I was trying to test them by scraping them sideways down shit fucked snow and I still couldn't feel any harsh vibrations. Favorite ski ever and I've only ridden like 5 times.

Wish the 110 woods came in a ti construction, I'd be all over that big time.

I love them in bumps. Even though they're stiffened by the Ti, the rocker makes it really easy to hit a bump head on without feeling harsh. I also find them super easy to disengage the tail. Unless there's true ice or powder, I reached for 'em.

What year Asym? The move to 184 from 186 was basically superficial and the skis are essentially the same length. The added volume in the front of the ski could help you but you won’t be getting a much longer ski at all.

The fire bottoms they just posted on instagram are ridiculous. I still think I like the marbled tie dye thing better however.

Also, the closer we get to snow the more I am daydreaming of adding some 102 Woods. I may have to stop clicking on this thread to avoid the bad influence...

[eSock]

Now that I got my goats back, thinking about passing along my 187 woodsman 108s w cat camo top sheet. Single mount for pivots @325, figured I'd mention it here first before putting em up elsewhere. Still in great condition w a little usual wear.

Can you trim them down to 102 wide?

Dammit, I clicked on this thread again...

[KM14]

I think they were 2019/20 184s.

[LoLoMayne]

there are some fun looking tour core supergoats on KSL

[margotron]

I have some BG 184s with Oregon Topo top sheet. Maybe 2016? Pre asym. Edges are good but they have a lot of ptex on the bases. I’d say beat up but still some life. DM so these can cheaply go to a new home
