    I'm interested in this comparison too. Does anyone know how the weight of the 99 vs 100 compares? Curious if the 100 is lighter or more damp with the 2.0 core.

    I have a pair of mfree 108s. I haven't taken them out in a few seasons (injury + new boot size) but I felt I never really gelled with them. I put a giant core shot in them so the resell value is pretty marginal. I just wrecked my 110 quiver ski so thinking it's worth a revisit to the mfrees. I haven't been on them since they've been serviced so hoping that a fresh tune and playing with the mount can put me I the money.

    Tldr: where should I (re)mount these?

    anyone have a thought or experience on the MFREE 112 -190 mount point? Got a pair and after mocking it up it mount only looks to be -3.5 / -4 from true center...

    I typically go for a -5 /-6 from center mount, but wouldn't mind someone chiming in what they thought and how the ski behaved... TIA

    I skied them -1 and thought they worked well there. You could probably go back 2 without messing with their magic. Detuned the tip and tails with a gummy.

    It is strange that the Rossignol Sender Free 110 have the Directional/Traditional -2cm markings on the ski yet the MF 112 does not. These skis are not super sensitive to mount points so you can definitely move back and still have a playful ski while improving float and stability. I'd only be near the line if you were spinning or sizing up in length for your size. I am -3cm/-6.25cm total on my similar sidecut SF 110 and love it there as a directional skier. The similar sidecut but narrower MF 100 just has the traditional-7.7cm back mount marked vs the SF 100 version again being around -3cm with markings for -2cm on that ski. I went a bit over -3cm/-6.25cm total on my SF 100 and like it there too. So definitely lots of mounting options without losing the magic on any of these skis.

    I’m -5 from recommended and loving life. Go backwards to your heart’s content.

    Thanks T. I'm going to set them at least that far back. Sounds like quite a few others prefer them quite a bit back off the line.

    Does anyone have a good comparison of the Sender Squads vs. the M-Pro 110? I picked some squads up recently and am curious how much redundancy I have now. FWIW, I probably ski my M-Free 108s 75% of the time and break out the M-Pro 110s for chunder, carrying speed and airing less.

    Do the squads have a place in my quiver next to Mpro 110s?

    Dynastar is so fuckin ill&nbsp;</p>
    <p>
    &nbsp;</p>
    <p>
    Currently on Legend 106s from 2022?? Have no desire to replace them any time soon.</p>
    <p>
    &nbsp;</p>
    <p>
    The Cham 2.0 107 was one of my fav skis. Got them when I first moved to SLC in 2017 and went through 3 pairs of them before getting the Legends.</p>
    <p>
    &nbsp;</p>
    <p>
    Love how they carve about as good as freeride mid 100mm underfoot semi rockered ski and how I can point them straight down a face and not have to worry about getting bucked.</p>
    <p>
    &nbsp;</p>
    <p>
    Does the M line continue this philosophy or are they more playful?&nbsp;</p>
    <p>
    Been thiniking about a MFree 99 as a complimentary skinnier /east coast ski as Legends in the South East do not seem ideal&nbsp;</p>

    If you like the legends, go Mpro not Mfree.

    cross post from the SF110 thread: For science!

    SF100 mounted at -1 from rec, so 4.2 from center. SF100s and MF100s (mine are mounted +3 from rec) are 100% not the same ski with different constructions - they are different both with respect to shape (widest points), rec mount, flex pattern and construction (most notably titanal in the SFs). The rocker lines seem fairly similar though. The ski kinda differently too - SFs are looser, softer and easier to play around on, SFs have more umph and want to go straight / in big arcs. Both release the tails easily. It kinda feels like they took the BO98 and tweaked it into both a playful charger and a more park oriented playful all mountain ski, while upping the soft snow capability of both versions. I reset the edges at 1/2 on both - the tunes were not great. These should cover a huge range of skiers - very very good skis.

    Kid you played a little fast and loose with the SF/MF distinction - to clarify MF have ti underfoot and I’m guessing from context clues that’s the ski you’re characterizing as more playful charger with SF park friendly all mountain… correct?
    There are lions and there are sheep. So, which one are you?

    See Blister measured a set of the longest two lengths of the new MFree 100 and a Flash review as well. See no mention of metal underfoot like there was in the MFree 99. Similar weight to the 184cm Sender Free 100 it looks like.

    Nice comparison. Thanks. Anyone got blisters flash review summary (comparing ninety nine to one hundred)? (Membership expired)

    Accidentally deleted…reposting.

    I was able to A/B the ‘25 M Free 99 (prior hybrid core) and the SF100. Both in 184 and 185 length, which are actually 181.5 straight pull. Both weigh in at 2000g a ski. The tails are identical. Earlier front rocker rise on the M Free. There is metal under the M Free as well for the binding. I also noticed the M Free at its narrowest was 97mm. -5.5cm on SF100, -6.5cm on M Free.

    The SF100 is slower to release and is better on edge imo. It’s still loose, but not as loose as the M Free. That’s not to say you can’t rail groomers on the M Free, you just have to be more aware. I found the tip and tail to be slightly stiffer on the SF100. For me that hindered its performance in tight bumpy terrain when in steeps. This ski is loud in icy conditions and not the most stable through chop I found.

    The M Free is different to me in that it is more stable underfoot but softer in the tips and tails. It was better in chop and bumps due to those two things. I also found it more lively to hit every bump on the mountain. Confidence inspiring for cliff drops as well and just a more fun ski all around for me.

    I was looking for a lower tide ski to compliment the SF110, which is stable underfoot with softer tips. I tend to like that style of ski, so for me this decision was easy and I’ll be selling the SF100. I’m not a fan of stiff from tip to tail lightweight skis, and I know 2000g isn’t light for most, but I kept getting that feeling with the SF100

    Any reason for a 5'8 170 guy to not go 185 in the m-free 99? Thinking about grabbing a pair on the sale.

    I’m the same height and weight as you and have the 185 99s. I like them a lot. They’re fun in bumps, trees, dust on crust - conditions where you have to ski around things rather than blasting though. And I find they hold a good edge on groomers.
