    This is the magic some of us love about that vintage. Definitely the most playful of the past decade. Agree that they warrant a more neutral stance compared to the newer 187 and Asym 189, as I feel...

    I know...the longest of long shots since they are a 2024 favorite and nobody is discounting.

    My youngest skied them in Whistler last week and they worked for him everywhere. Anyone have a lead...

    What's Blizzard up to?

    Yep. I’m on the 190 Optic 104. It feels like “more” ski than the 186 Rustler 10. Less precise on firmer snow, looser overall feel especially in the tail, and more stable/damp.

    In comparison, the...

    Agree with bossass. You could go 178 or 186. I’m 5’ 8” and 200-lbs on the 186. It handles my weight fine and is crazy playful while not folding. Great all around soft snow ski.
