anyone know anything? saw a pikky somwhere, cant remember where......?

apparently like a small megawatt.....

discuss

**LightRanger** · 11-13-2008, 11:11 PM

There was a bit of discussion on TTips about them, after somebody spotted a pair in a photo on the Powderwhores' blog. I believe that somebody said they were essentially rockered Zealots.

Interesting, this genre of all-mountain managable mid-fat (105-115ish) rockers is getting bigger by the day. . .
-Lhasa
-S7
-JJ
-Overlord
-This ski . . . .'Justice'
-EHP
-Obsethed
-Czar
-Reno Rocker
-Praxis MTN

Also, I guess DPS 120 could be thrown into that group aswell, seeing as people use it for an everyday ski.

-There are others I'm sure, I just can't think of them at the moment.

Looks to me like this will be the future . . . .

Here are some photos (from powderwhore.com) and what they had to say about it.

"Black Diamond is sending us down with some “Justice” prototype’s to swoosh around on (sexy red skis). They are a slight step down in size from the Megawatt’s (my fav of all time) and have a similar rockered tip design. Jacobsen and I have different versions to ski and report on."

OUCH! I hope you aren't talking about my green/black ones with the ghost face...

Those new skis look pretty sharp.

make that "our" green/black ones. . . .i've got em too. Great skis, but ther super ugly, other than the ghost man - btw I have dubbed that man as a 'mook.' Not to be confused with a 'fuck mook' from johnny depp, in that mexico movie. . . . just, . . .mook. With a barking gag sound after you say mook. . . .

edit: sorry, . . . im baked

**bryanthebold** · 11-17-2008, 10:32 AM

I really love the megawatts so it should be interesting to see how they come out. I've always wanted something just like them but slightly smaller for touring and in bounds days when its not nipple deep. Please BD, do a mid season release on them to backcountry.com and I will buy them

**nhtele** · 11-17-2008, 10:58 AM

115mm underfoot, rockered tip, and looked to be really fun.

I chatted with a BD guy skiing them down in Lenas.

Katana and Mothership might be stretching it, they are barely rockered. Anyways, future, present - its all the same. . . My point got across. . .

**Rob Stokes** · 11-18-2008, 01:02 PM

No, actually...it isn't.

100mm waist "all mountain ski"

110 to 117 "Midfat"

120 to 140 "Megafat"

Dude, sub 100mm is so 2006

what about 118 and 119mm?

so nothing inbetween 'midfat and 'mega fat'?

its prob cos i ski europe, you get stared at in the lift lines with 105mm skis in most resorts!

I doubt there's been many on them yet.

Although... go check out the Powderwhore movie for a "visual review".

**Shorty_J** · 10-16-2009, 09:50 PM

Bumping up this old thread because I fondled these today. The early rise tip is quite different and far less drastic than the Megawatt, and the tip profile is gradual rather than having the sort-of two-stage rockered tip of the Megawatt. Flex was medium-stiff under foot, a bit softer in the tip. Similar dims to Lhasa's, but probably softer (if the Lhasa's flex anything like stiff Bros), and therefore less of a charger. But I actually quite liked the flex for what I am looking for (resort/sidecountry powder ski for a smaller skier).

Interesting to note that the Zealot for this year is slightly narrower but has what looks to be the exact same early rise tip profile of the Justice... if you're looking for something beefier.

**Ski to Be** · 11-16-2009, 11:07 AM

I am getting some 185's for touring with dynafit setup. I will post a review when I get out on them. I want to wait till the rocks are covered up to use them.
