I havent tried the 102's yet, but have a ton of time on last years model, think they are 96mm. I have the 191's
I played with the mount fairly extensively with rental tracks, and ended up drilling...

Thanks guys.
Didnt really dig the Rustler. Have tried them a few times, not a huge fan. Felt too busy pinning it back to the chair (the last couple hundred vertical feet).
The other ones...

Hi, been skiing the longer ones for last few days here in Revelstoke, ABSOLUTE RIPPERS!
Smooth, stable, damp, and hold a turn like no other (perfect snow right now tho). Could still see my carves...

Okay, I pulled the trigger on the 140 XT Freeride. Tell me if I am nuts when I tell you my findings. First, 220lbs, w/o gear right now, 6'4", ski over a million vertical ft a year. Ex ski guide, have...

Those things work great, I have them on my K2's!

I had a pair almost exactly like the one pictured. I couldnt use it, seemed like I was looking through a Coke bottle or somethibg and gave me a weird almost vertigo like feeling. They returned my...

Are you guys saying that the new XT Free Pro Model 140 isnt that stiff? I am looking to replace my old K2 Spynes, which I loved, but am having a hard time finding something stiff enough and that...

Like new, literally.

Hi all.
I have a pair of MINT XXL's (193), with Marker Schizo bindings.
I havent used them for years and off and on have considered selling them.
Just now a guy offered to buy them, but I am...

I got the 192's, mounted in the "Freeride" position. This is about 1 and 1/4" back from the "Candide" position.
I never ride park or do tricks so don't want to comment on mounting. Mine are great...

Update.
I pulled the trigger on the Faction 3.0.
COULD NOT BE HAPPIER....amazing all around ski.
The only two things that are less than sub par is the ski has a speed limit and on hard (almost...

Figured, thanks.

Hi.
Cant decide if I should buy a brand new pair, or just pull a pair of lightly (4 or 5 years old or so) used off my Big Dumps, which I hardly ever use anymore.
Cant seem to sell the BD's, but...

Now looking at some Black Crow Animas, 194.
Has anyone ever tried this Ski out ??
Dont need it to go wide open, but when I do pin it for a bit would like a bit of substance.
You guys definitely...

Thanks guys...Checked out the Praxxis. Sound great, but I dot think for this season...soon though.
Full disclosure, I actually broke my neck in Feb, hence wanting to look for a mellower ski for...

Thsnks guys. Kind of like to buy local, so the skis I mentioned are right here..

Leaning heavily towards the Faction...
Would I be completely off my rocker to consider the 204 cm model ?? Would...

Hi.
6'4", 200 ish w/o gear
Big Mtn skier, fast, love high speed turns chop & crud, all day, non stop, love my older Cochise & XXL's.
Having said that, was looking for a differnt ski for the...

Hi.
Just picked up a new pair (last years) of 193 Cochise!
Have searched the net and here, and just wanted to know your quick thoughts on where to mount these...Need to mount soon.
My gut says...

OMG. This could be the ski for me.....!!

Have any of you tried the new Goats?
I love Volkl, and was thinking of trying the new Gotamas, but havent really heard too much.
I want a ski to use for after the storm, groomers, a bit of crud,...

OKay, I took the RPC's out again, after a day on my XXL's.
The RPC's, and maybe someone said this, are like Ferraris. Quick, agile, and probably too light for the type of skiing I crave. Fast, hard...

I have skied both, kind of......
I skied the SHIRO in the 203 and LOVED IT !!
It went fast as hell in all conditions, and was suprisingly quick turning in tight (er) trees and steeps mainly due to...

I skied the Pure 3's, the stiff ones.
How much "less stiff" and more damp would the hybrids be?
Can more of you chime in on what you have skied, the Pures or the Hybrids please? (Kyber.pass)
When...

Hi. I am a XXL fan. Skiing mainly on Automatics so far this season (dont want to hit any rocks on the XXL's yet...)

So my local awesome shop owner here in Revy
hands me a pair of RPC's (192) to...

hmmm. Whilst standing in my local awesome shop, the owner hands me over a pair of DPS RPC Wailers.
I thought I really did like this ski, untill I took my XXl's up today. The XXl's feel so much...

I just bought a pair of near top of the line Arcteryx bibs last season.
Fucking hate them.
I wish Burton made ski pants or at least started putting a tough material on inside at boot where the...

Thanks everyone.

I was a die hard Volkl fan for years before my Dynastar run. Might try those out if I can find a good deal.
I did try the BIg Dumps, didnt like them as much as my XXL's. Might...

Debating whether or not to get new skis again this year.
I have a bunch. My fave FOR SURE are my 193 XXL Dynastars.
Which new ski closest resembles the ability to smash the shit out of crud and go...

Yes, 193's.

I am starting to semi like the skis. I just cant push them. I have to back down 10-20 percent of what I ski my XXl's, and the skis are much better.
They scare the shit out of me when I am all out....

I am not really digging these skis when skiing anything but nice, soft, powder. They are nice in the trees, powder, and suprisingly good on the groomers, but I dont like them at all on most...

X2. Exactly how I feel. I am not really digging these skis when skiing anything but nice, soft, powder. They are nice in the trees, powder, and suprisingly good on the groomers, but I dont like them...

I have the Autos. They are ok. Thats it. Fine for "playful" skiing, thats why I bought them, something to use when I ski with my wife, and can pop into the trees and play and bounce back onto the run...

I havent toured in years. Bought these, went out, and had absolutely no problems, but did have a big smile on my face all day !!

Regarding the heel slop.
Just went down to two local shops here in town. Every binding they have mounted has the (heel) slop. It seems it is the design of these bindings. The "slot" that the little...

Feel free to post again. I dont think I am mounting them for a week or so, but hearing what you said makes me feel good. This is where my shop owner said to go all along.
I was wanting to go more...

Thinking of another new Burton shell. This one seems a bit too "minimalist" for me though, as I will be spending most days at the resort, and getting into the slackcountry a lot more this year. But...

Thank you Stanley !!

Let me ask this please.
If I am never going to ride switch, jib, or spin 3's. and my main thing is smashing crud and chopped up crap at high speeds, would I be better off mounting on the line?...

I am gonna wait a bit untill more people spend time on these and chime in. I skied my Goliaths today here in Revy and I had an incredibly fun day, so no real rush.
I am now gonna mount Guardians on...

Well, looks like I will have to move the bindings 2.5 cm front or back on the Goliaths to get away from the holes.
Is this just too much? And should I just mount the new Solly slackcountry bindings...

IMO, but hey, who am I, I feel that since they are so new, and have more "moving parts", plus the weight, and my height alreday, a "conventional" binding will be the way FOR ME. I am sure the...

Thanks guys, exactly what I figured.
All along I wanted to run the Goliaths, but saw the Big Dumps all pretty just sitting there.
Even if I have to move the mount a bit,, hopefully I can avoid the...

Was going to add some new Atomic Auto's to the quiver this year, and some Trackers/Guardians to put on a pair of older skis for slackcountry. The skis (Goliaths) I was going to put the "touring...
