I think it comes down to what’s in your quiver and where you want the wc108 to fit. As a daily driver you could probably get away with either size and if the 184 felt awesome in soft you might want...
Nordica Unleashed 108. Ski partner has the 174 and she rips on em.
I bet you could get a s916, sth-16, or sth2-16 toe from somebody here for near nothing. Same hole pattern and not 30 years old.
If she liked the Sheeva 10, seems like a good fit. 110 bents too.
Whoever put her on devastators should have a talking to.
Get a good temp and time recipe and cook away.
The new hawx mimic pro liner is near impossible to insert at room temperature. I have to heat the shell and liner in a boot bag, then it’s still a wrestling match. I didn’t have that problem with...

Are you sure those WC118s are 192cm?
Definitely go back to the shop. They injected the liners without heating them which means they didn’t follow Atomic’s instructions. Anything short of replacing the liners with new ones is...
-5 sounds like it might be the better choice from everything you described. -2 from recommended on a 158 ski is pretty substantial, especially if she’s not driving the front of the ski.
The Wildcat 108 has a much longer turn radius than the mfree 108. If you like or need a 108 ski to pull you into turns you might prefer the mfree. Personally I don’t want that short of turn radius...
My daughters rode together often at that age with zero lift issues. Always bar down was one rule, keep up with your older sister was the other rule.
Lifts were no problem, difference in skiing...
Same experience here with original mimic pro liner. Awesome for 50 days, then its performance quickly deteriorated. I switched to a LV tongue to take up volume, and it maybe helped a little, but the...
You can use your feet or a door/door jam to remove the old baskets. No tools needed on Scott poles.
To install the new ones, just slide them on and put just the tip between deck boards or...
I heard that surefoot can replicate footbeds, but maybe they keep a scan of the foot to do it? Might be worth a visit, but I don’t see it being a cheap option.

Then bend them. Round here we mount our own fucking skis and bend our own fucking brakes. There are multiple threads over many years about this. Use the search function.
This is a Moment...
They will fit with a slight bend and dremeling down the inside plastic on the brake arm. Search here in tech talk or youtube for bending techniques. Sth2 brakes are easy to bend.

Been using this for a few years of night ski and bike riding. It’s been trouble free and I would buy again in a heartbeat.

I demoed it a couple of days, and as 2Funky questioned it’s likely they were not de-tuned well. That being said, I definitely prefer longer radius chargers in the 108 category
If you like longer radius skis I’d steer away from the Mpro series. It’s sidecut definitely pulls you into turns but with it’s heft and stiffness it gets a bit hung up in steep technical terrain. ...
Agree it would be a pia, but you could always mark the heel track to get correct forward pressure without stepping a boot in. Some creativity or fabricating to get a brake/riser on the track but...
So they pre-release, ski like bricks, and have stand height over 30mm.. but you ski super hard and haven’t taken 5 minutes to check forward pressure yourself?
Get new bindings and watch a...
The gain is that you would lose over 800 grams while touring by removing the heels. I could see doing that for really long approaches.
I would reuse the holes at 1mm difference. There’s at least that much margin of error just drilling the holes. You probably won’t die.
I disagree, plenty of soft noodles are great floating pure powder skis. The WC is substantially wider than the DW and the rocker profile makes even a bigger difference imo. For me the WC108 floats...
No real negatives at -1, especially if it’s your biggest ski. Imo the forward lean on your boots matters a lot to where the best mount point is on the Wildcat. More centered boots = more centered...
Hate to tell you this, but if that track/heel piece is frozen, it’s likely other parts of that binding are compromised too. Get your daughter a new pair of bindings, decent used ones are pretty...

Benchetler 100 with Duke pt16.
Good for OP for not wasting the last 13 years on this forum. Man needs new skis, makes a post. Well done
Did they use your bsl in their din formula? Tibial head measurement could matter but the bsl lever effect matters much more.
Overall 3.27 / 5. ?? Apparently they didn’t factor my 4.75 in their rating formula. Legendary game changing ski
STH16s were less consistent on DIN release values than the newer version STH2-16.
I would adjust as they tested, not the number on the binding. One setting difference wouldn’t scare me.
Like title says. Trade my 100mm brakes for your 90mm
Wildcat 108.
Triple camber has its place, but conventional rocker/camber works better in park and freeride comp conditions.
Just a heads up that the new version Mimic Pro liner is no longer available for shops to order. Atomic has some sizes left on their retail site for customers to order direct. Maybe yours will come...
Chemical pants sold
But they don’t tell you how they dispose of it. Until they prove they can do it with less of an impact of it shedding off ski bases, I’ll use mine till it’s gone.

Why not try the 192 Rustler 11 if you like the 188 at -2. It’s the same width but I felt slightly stiffer and still wheels in tight terrain
