Thanks for the review BM. Much appreciated. The 114 is on my short list to replace my Rustler 11 next year. I’m just torn between 184 and 191. I’m on the R11 in 188, and sometimes find myself wanting...

Thx for the insight Sylvan. Let me know how the 191 KVW ski. Here's hoping we get a bit more snow next week!

Swissbro, interesting that you prefer the K108 in the pow compared to R11....Do you...

I’d also be in for a pair!

Great thread. I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on some KVW 191 or 188 Rustler 11's to replace my 186 Confessions. I already have a BMT 109 for touring, so these would be dedicated...

roQer let me know what you think about the 184 length compared to your previous older 191 Katanas once you ski it. I'm really on the fence between a 184 and 191 (I'm 6ft 165 lbs and like directional...

Thx for the feedback! Yeah I was hoping for 2022 Volkl would have a Confession replacement in the 115 waist range, but alas we still have to decide between the Katana 108 and Revolt 121....

Thx for the insight! My 2 ski quiver is the M5 Mantra and Confession so sounds like I should try to test both the Katana and R11, but an M5/R11 2 ski quiver might be good too...

Mantra M5 have been my go to for spring slop.

In addition to my question regarding a Confession comparison a few posts back, Bandit, it sounds like you prefer the Katana 108 to the Rustler 11 as well? The R11 is also on my short list (I pretty...

Anyone have any experience moving from a Confession to the Katana 108? My 186 Confession is getting a bit worn out and the Katana seems to be the obvious replacement, but the narrower waist has me...

E13 builds their own hubs. 6 degrees of engagement and nice and loud like I9 (personal preference but I like the sound).

Just thought I’d throw out an alternative. I’m on the E13 TRSr SL Carbon wheels and love them. I’ve beat the crap out of them last year and they are still perfect. E13 now has lifetime warranty on...

Dalbello also has the Krypton AX series now. 100mm last, so fits similar to the Panterra without the walk mode. Just got the Krypton AX 120 ID and love it.

I just went from old Solly Impact's to a pair of the new Dalbello Krypton AX 120's. The wider last on these new Kryptons allowed me a great fit right out of the box after home baking the Intuition...

So anyone else with any time on these have a review? From what I've heard the 193 isn't super demanding. Due to deals I can get, it's now down to the Confession or the Bodacious for a soft snow daily...

Thanks for the mini review. I've been debating between the 186 or 193 Confession and this sounds like the 193 is the ticket.

Did some searching but there hasn't been a lot of info about this ski in the past few years. Anyone skiing a recent version? Looking at a new set of boards this season and I'm looking at the Prior...

Thx for the extra info. Sounds like the 193 would work. I basically just ski at Whistler so prefer a bigger ski for the wide open bowls. I'm also considering a 189 Billy Goat. Might just boil down to...

I'm really interested in these as well. On a 193 Shiro right now so assume I'd get the 193 Confession. But if it's way burlier or stiffer maybe the 186 is the ticket. I'm 6ft and 175lbs. I wanted to...

Thanks for the review. Sounds mostly like what I'm looking for (minus the hooky tips in wind blown). Whistler gets it's fair share of wind blown and grabby snow....

Great. Thanks! I didn't see that review yet.

Anyone have any demo time on these? On paper they look like a fantatic ski for the PNW and a great replacement for the Highball. Looking for a daily driver for Whistler to mount with alpine clamps...

I've read all the Guardian threads and see a few have been breaking. For the most part though, did people have a good experience on these their first year out, or are Dukes still the way to go? I see...

Tough to find now due to shitty distribution but add Movement Trust to the list. 108 underfoot, stiff middle and tail, with a med stiff tip and tip rocker. Handle the deep pow, crud and groomers...

Wrens, Katana's, Cochise, or Trust would all fit the bill very nicely. I love the Movement Trust for all the reasons you describe: Rocker tip, slight camber underfoot, stiff, with a totally flat...

Have you tried the 110? If so, how does it compare in flex to a Solly Impact 10?

Anybody try the 110's yet? I tried on the 120's in a shop and they fit well with the powerwraps from my old Solly Impact 110's. I'm thinking I could save a bit of cash and just get the 110's because...

Sell the XT cranks and get some RF Turbine's. They have a removable granny spider for those that want to run SS and need extra room....

Check out the Movement Trust in a 186. Nice long tip rocker. Stiff in the middle and tail. Med stiff up front and has a flat tail with a hint of camber. Pretty light too. They also feature the bomb...

RF has been using the EXI interface on most cranks since 2009. They finally moved the Atlas cranks over this year as well. Basically they replaced the x-type splines at the end of the spindle to ISIS...

Thx. There's really nothing wrong with my Solly's but I just miss the Flexon middle buckle heel lock. I had some old Flexon Slalom boots many years ago (a lower cuff bastard child of the original)...

Anyone ski it? I have a feeling it's more of an intermediate boot, but the width looks great for my foot (103mm). Dalbello site says you can stiffen to a 110 flex. I'm in Solly Impact 110's right now...

I was on MFD's with Pivot 14's mounted on Movement Trusts all last season and loved them. I do 90% in bounds and 10% slackcountry so perfect for me. They feel like a regular alpine mount when skiing...

Not sure but a bit lower than the Solly's I think...

The Pivot 12 or 14 option is the best combo IMO. 2160g for the binding so a hair lighter than the Tyrolia/Deadbolt and you get better elasticity. Loving my Look MFD combo. Unitil I can afford a...

194 Movement Trust = 4400g (pair)

I'd also consider the Movement Trust in a 194. A tad narrow in the waist (108mm) but similar tip (141mm) and tail (129mm) to other skis on your list. They have a bit less tip rocker than the Super...

I was on MFD's with Pivot 14's all last season. I have to say they feel identical to a regular alpine setup (but heavier). I do 90% inbounds at Whistler and occasionally tour the Blackcomb...

186 Movement Trust might fit the bill.

Try to find a 2011 Movement Goliath. Lots of Dynastar XXL's on ebay as well...

I just got off a few days at Whistler on my 194 Trusts mounted with Pivot 14's and MFD Alltimes and they are incredible. The early rise tips, low camber, and smaller turning radius made these easier...

It's horrible for me as well. Been on Yahoo mail for 15 years and the new version is almost unusable at times. It's painfully slow, full or error messages, and just plain sucks balls. Please bring...

I'm on a Rocky Slayer and it's amazing. Feels like a mini DH bike on the down and pedals like a champ. I'd add it to the list.

Just hooked up a pair of 194 Trusts. Not sure if I'll mount with PX15's or Baron's yet....Prob Barons. Will post a review once the season starts.

That happened to a buddy of mine too. RF was great about warranty and said that was an occasional issue on Deus posts from a few years back that has long since been fixed. Have your shop give them a...

Those are interesting pics. When I compared the blue 192 ST to the 186 Trust in the store yesterday the rocker was very similar when the ST twin was taken out of the equasion. I wonder if the...

Thx for the review. I love the goliath length when ripping bowls and steeps but wish it was a 188 at the end of some long pow/crud days and in the trees. Maybe the 192 Super Turbo is the key, but I...

Got a chance to fondle both the Trust and Super Turbo yesterday. The 186 Trust seems to have the same running length as the 192 Super Turbo. The extra 6cm on the ST comes from the small twin in the...

I upgraded to the 18's after breaking the toe wing on a set of plastic 14's. Probably an isolated incident, but I feel better with the metal toe.
