Moment Skis Discussion

I had a roadie teammate who shared an email account with his old lady. Lots of "phone calls" with that guy around each gear season. ;-)

You can post on TGR but not write an email?

Phones work too: 775-527-1595

Yep. Straight up don't want my email to my phone. I can e-mail after work, but don't have much time after work today.

Christmas came early yesterday, gotta say these look spectacular in person. First pair of Moments, always wanted a pair of Belafontes but could never manage it. I'd say the wait was worth it from everything I've read and seen. Didn't demo so anyone who's skied them them plz reiterate how rad they are. Other skis I own are BGs and Variant 97s.

[2FUNKY]

Holy hell those look great! I have wanted to get on moments for a long time now. Finding them up here to try is impossible.

[nyskirat]

Those are so sexy. Stuck between those and Woodsman...

[waxloaf]

They look amazing. Re woodsman vs commander, should be a pretty easy decision if you know how much weight you like in a ski.

Great looking boards, man. I’m stoked to try my Wildcat 108’s this year, also my first pair of Moments after riding only ON3P. I was also impressed with how great the Wildcats looked in person. Enjoy and think snow!

Sidecut/turn radius much different too.
Sidecut/tr on production Woodsman is why I went after the proto Woodsman that were straighter/less sidecut, in spite of being the 187's

Good call, mount points different too. The truly tough choice seems to be b/w wildcat 108 and woodsman, which I am sure many are agonizing over.

Me three, same goes for binders (although I have yet to try shifts), and boots

I don't think I can tell a difference between Shifts and, say, Wardens. They ski like an alpine binding. But they are almost 900g per foot, so way heavier than most tech bindings. Super impressive and they have a place in my quiver, but they're not a one size fits all silver bullet either.

100% with everybody who's saying that no light touring construction ski can come close to a heavier one when it comes to nuking inbounds chop. Weight is your friend there.

Pretty excited about my new Wildcats:

[Jongle]

Nice! I think a ton of people would be interested in a comparison of those two setups once you've had some time on snow.

Some epic community love got these garage sale specials from SLC to the East Coast...



Yes they are a Women’s Bella, but hey I’m 140 pounds & need a fast grass AT ski.

I used to be like you. If you need some tips on eating cheeseburgers, let me know. (*cranks up DIN*)

Curious on people’s thoughts on the length for Wildcat 108s. I am about 5’9” and 175 lbs. I have a pair of PBJs in 182 and ski inthayne’s in 186. Would a 190 wildcat be fun??? Also considering a new deathwish. This would be to a new daily driver in the PNW

thanks!

I’m sure Luke will weigh in, but my hunch is that it will depend on your style—if you want to charge, go 190; if you want to play a little more go 184.

You also should have a pretty good idea from your pbjs—do you feel like you need more ski at times or is it plenty for how you like to ski?

[sruffian]

The 190 wildcat 108 is a lot of fun. Made me want to jib off of everything. I'm 5'10 175 in the summer, up toward 185 in the winter. That said I ski 190 bibby's, 187 meridians. With short pbj's and inthayne's in your quiver, I'd seriously consider the 190 for skiing fast. It almost certainly won't be too much ski for you.

[TheCornYard]

Thanks for the input Ruffian and waxloaf. Sounds like the 190 might be the way to go for me... that being said would the same advice apply for the regular wildcat?

People that have skied both, how does the wildcat 108 compare to the PBJ? Maybe their would be too much overlap in their general use?

[lucknau]

It'll be an adjustment at first, but she'll grow into em.
