Has anyone gotten 50/50's yet? Any weight numbers?

[Viva]

Took the Wren 112s that I bought off of Waxloaf to Wolfy these past couple of days. They are indeed fine powder skis!

Those are 114s. I am actually about to sell my set that only has 7-8 ish days on them (damn knee rehab has me skiing different than I used to)

Fucking love these skis.

[goolick]

Was the Mera 102 quietly cancelled? They never became available and I don't see them on the site anymore.

Nice! Glad to see those getting out in the wild

Going to end up custom only. Jessie too. With unit loss from Covid, we're struggling just to keep Magnus/Jeffrey/Woodsman in stock. Didn't want to release graphics that never actually got produced, and having to prioritize our top SKUs right now, so just pulled them for now. A couple other skis - Wren 102s, 179cm BG variants, 186cm M90, 171 J108, CD, J108 Tour - are likely one and done for the season too so once their runs are through that will be it for the year.

[frosted flakes]

The 184 BG tours are back in stock (or are at least being produced now). Just put in my order.

[paal]

^ Yeah, couldn't resist anymore. Put in an order last night. BG 108 Tour with 2012 Caylor topsheets.
Now I just have to decide how flimsy to go on the binding side...(?)

Same, I've got some helio 180s I was planning to mount, but keep thinking "maybe I should do inserts for tecton instead..."

I do really like the idea of < 2kg with bindings though. Decisions, decisions!

I kicked this around in the mount your own fucking skis thread but want to get the thoughts of the ON3P collective experts.

I have last years BGs with Shift bindings. I want to replace the Shifts with Pivot 15s. Due to hole overlap I would need to move forward or backwards 5mm. I would normally go back but with RES I am not sure. I don’t have a lot of time on these skis so I plan to get more time on them before deciding but thought I would throw this out here to get feedback.

As someone who put Shifts on BGs this spring but still hasn't ridden them, is there a reason you're planning to swap em?

I had to go 2cm back on a pair of BGs due to a hole conflict, ridden them probably 70 days like that. I've wheelied out on some 15ft+ cliffs in deep snow but no complaints other than that. I've never ridden BGs at recommended though so ymmv.

FWIW I'm at ~+1.3cm on 186's (for riding lifts) and +1cm on 189's (touring) and both pairs are unreal. I wouldn't hesitate to go forward +0.5 if you're second guessing going backwards.

Back, especially with Pivots.

[phatboy64]

Not really. I have no issues with the Shifts, I have them on few pairs of skis. I have a pair of Pivot 15s and a second ski setup for the CAST system and have been kicking around the idea of switching over. CAST is new to me and I really like the build quality. Honestly I haven’t 100% convinced myself that doing the switch over would be worth it, that is what I am trying to sort out.

Do you think I would be ok with the 5mm from a screw hole standpoint. There are only two holes that would have this conflict. The two screws closest to the AFD plate on the toe. The remaining 6 would not come close to the other old holes.

I shoot for 1cm center to center new>>old holes. When I overlay the mount patterns for Shift and FKS, it appears that going forward a few mm would allow 1cm spatial distance on the rearward toe holes (assuming the same BSL.)

[phatboy64]

Yes. Based on your info and the pic curtesy of Spyderjon it looks like 5mm forward or 1 cm back. Normally this would be a non issue for me but the RES thing has me overthinking this. Based on Iggys feedback if I do this I will me 1cm back.

In heavy Woodsman 108 vs Wildcat 108 right meow.. Any one care to chime in and help me out since these skis have been out for a bit. I've looked all over this place and its still up in the air..

Thanks in advance..

[mr_pretzel]

Wildcat 108 = strong on edge, light, damp feel, but get kicked around a bit

Woodsman 108 = Damp but energetic on3p feel. Can be pushed hard without as much fatigue as the wildcat 108.

Similar skis in turn shape and stuff like that, but very different feel. Moment light and precice, on3p harder to explain = classic on3p feel.

Do you think one would be “easier” to ski than the other?

[SupreChicken]

Who’s got a billy goat 108 tour review? Also curious what peeps think of the 50/50 core.

[mr_pretzel]

Not really. They are both pretty stiff, maybe the woodsman, maybe.

But if thats a concern the jeffrey is really good too, and definitely easier going than both.

[pfluffenmeister]

Once mounted 191 bear claw Billy Goat going up for sale soon.

I know that many people mounted the Jeffery behind the line before the woodsman. Is that still a thing? I like to be around the -6 area.
