I had a feeling

There are some nice 190 DW on KSL as well

Ya I caught those. Waiting for an OG graphic DW before I add it to the quiver again. The meridian countach combo hurts my want for another DW.

I'm a bit apprehensive of triple camber. Worried it'll be like asym for me. Have never tried it, even though I've wanted to since it's inception.

How’d you like the Countach versus the DW? Specifically in powder/soft snow?

I never clicked with the ASYM BGs but I can confidently say I didn’t have that issue with triple camber.

Haven’t been on it yet! From the looks and shape however it looks like it will float and handle chop a bit better than the DW

Anyone using Commander 98s as their lower tide ski? Have the Commander 108 and love it as a daily driver, but thinking of the older 98 as a frontside focused all mountain ski. Seems like it would be a great fit in that quiver position.

I got 98s for that purpose last year, really happy with them and found I use them way more than I assumed I would. They are clearly not the best option for off piste in a maritime/PNW snowpack, but they handle themselves pretty well if needed and are an absolute blast on soft groomers back to the lift.

In an internal debate about what bindings to throw on these ghost trains.

Pivot 15s or Strive 16? I have both in my closet.

Two of my favorite things are deep pow and pivots, but they don’t mix imo.

I really love my 188 C98s for firm snow use. So fun. Less playful and jibby than my PBJs for sure, but edgehold and power feel amazing. Sorta halfway between my PBJs and Mantra 102s (which I wanted to like, but didn't) aka PERFECT for me.

Anything more than 2", I bring out something 110 or larger. So, the C98s get a LOT of use. They go very fast really well, but they are still really maneuverable.

I don't take a ton of air on hardpack days, but the PBJs are way better and the tail much more gentle and plush on landings in those conditions. C98s are more powerful, but still pretty loose relatively speaking.

Contrary to what others have said, I think they're awesome off-piste, but in chalk / firm / limited new snow conditions. If you're skiing in chop / on a pow day, there are better tools for the job.

Mounted at +1. Skiing these at Palisades Tahoe mostly....still feels weird writing that.

Can anyone share a rocker pic (preferably base to base) of your pair of Meridian Tours? Plz N Thx

To be clear this was last year's iteration? Or what vintage? Been looking for this exact ski

Badass - thanks! BTW love that you have new Meridians, MTs, and ANOTHER pair of new skis still in the plastic. Ha!

Here's an Intention 110 with the reverse camber profile for comparison. (They have Voyager 12s on there... and I didn't think the Meridian Tour would be sold again, so that's my excuse.)

The ones in plastic are for the oldest. The kids keep growing! And once you transition from a whatever ski thats cheap and fits to moment/praxis/On3p they are too spoiled to go back!

I’ll update this post tonight with a full rocker picture

Anyone have a Carson 115 laying around? Found one in the classifieds, but no response.

I am in a similar quandary with my meridians…Duke PT16 off of my old Enforcers or NIB pivot 15.

Seems pretty straight forward to me. If you want to tour w them dukes, if not pivots...

too fun a ski not to tour on. Dukes all day and twice on Sunday.

Could castify as well.

Eh. No need to carry around a toe. And pivots suck in powder.
