Reallistically this is what I have my wren 98's for. Cruising with the family. This weekend (Before the storm) I was skiing a mixture of hardpack, and some wind deposited dust on crust with my little girl. They were perfect for tooling around, but were nice and stable when I really opened them up.

Exactly why we updated them. I loved that version of CD in some situations, but it was a LOT of ski for most days. The newer, thinner cored with extra carbon editions are so much easier to ski and don't sacrifice the ski feeling at all.
You can still have lots of fun on those, though so don't give up yet. They are still tops in the DEEP.You should have been here yesterday!

I had OG C&D's x-tra stiff(2 carbon stringers) and never found sfiffness to be a problem. I'm not small though. They slayed pow and were a lot of fun. Problem for me was the shape. I've found I don't really like pintails and coupled with tail rocker=no Bueno--grabby in front/washy in the rear. Skied 'em spring '11 in the Pipeline and knew that was my last day on 'em. They skied fine, just felt like I had to manage every turn. Sold 'em to a maggot. Also, I already had pow skis(PB's, proto & 2nd gen Mavens) that were more fun/versatile(I like fatties for spring slop)

I have the originals, too... lots of miles on those. Way different rocker and taper than the newer gens. Apples to oranges. Those oldies had the kick-up abrupt rocker with a more traditional tip, while the new have longer and more gentle rocker with a flatter tip.
Stiffness affects deep snow planing a bit more in the newer shape I think... and as Powtron notes, they've refined the flex to better match the shape of the CnD in recent gens. I'd sure like to try the asymmetric taper model.

^^That's awesome. My moms is on some 161 Tychoons, but I kinda wish they were Viciks.

I had some Viciks from 2014? That was such a good graphic. Regret selling that ski.

This graphic is rad too. I think this is my favorite On3p topsheet besides the wolf..
Its classy and edgy at the same time. The Lobster!
