It was more from athlete influence. Some of the European athletes were asking for stiffer skis which made it 's way subtly into production. The original 193 Cochise proto that Arne gave his thumbs up to was actually quite soft.
I busted my leg into a lot of pieces on the 196 Bodacious 3 years ago and swore I'd never ski it again but I sacked up and skied the new one on Friday at Alta and had a blast. It was variable to say the least and it was so much more fun than the old one. Old ski was kind if one dimensional. Just ass kicking if you weren't on your game . New one is more fun without losing the top end.Last edited by wasatchback; 01-13-2014 at 11:49 PM.

So, as I'm hearing it from the boys in the know, the new 105 under foot ski from DPS is more RC112 or XXL ish than the W112 or W99.
I'm jonesing to get out on a pair.www.dpsskis.com

The DPS Wailer 105 will be back for 14/15 with a new sidecut, flex and rocker profile. It has tip rocker, slight camber underfoot and a flat tail. A distinctly different design objective than the W99 in both Pure 3 and Hybrid constructions. This will also be one of the models showcasing a new Hybrid construction.

The newish mullet rocker is pretty sweet. I have it on this years Tahoe. Gives the ski life, stiffness and a wider feel at the same time. Easier to schmear turns yet still hold a SG turn on the firm piste.
