Dynastar Cham

[Dave Marshack]

Hey guys. I was in my shop today and the rep brought in some new skis for us to mount up, called the Dynastar Cham. Had like a 147-127-137 cut in like a 188 or so. Looked kinda like a "dynastarized" version of the new squad 7 from Rossi with some differences like chopped tail and a slight variation on the sidecut profile and the flex. Anyone ridden em yet? I am guna try and get out on em soon! hopefully its guna be "Cham-wow" tomorrow in this pow we are gettin.

Let us know what you think - did you get the 107-waisted ski as well?

Interesting...be it spam or not...

Post up when you have gotten some time on the sticks.

Dynastar is like a religion in the Chamonix valley (few years ago the locals / shops all had a boycott against salomon when they moved production out of France). Looks like a cool ski...

Never been to Cham, but 127 seems a little big for that place no? Fun looking shape however.

Not with the year they're having so far! Last year I wouldn't have skied many days on a 127mm ski there tho.

Where are you Dave M?

[Dave Marshack]

I'm Blackcomb through and through..... it took everything i had not to take em out into that pow today... rep didn't get back to me with a decision on me ridin em. We have the 87 and 97 right now too. The 97 looks to be a badass touring ski. These are so stiff dudes, gotta have some power to turn em.

Looks like a winner of a new series.

Flexed both the 107 and 127 today. And I can't figure out wtf Dyna is doing? The 107 were stiff as fuck and had a shitload of camber and the 127 were about as soft as a solid steel 2x4... They were actually up there with the WhiteDot Fred Syversen promod (Rangnarök?). I've also heard that the can't hold an edge at all cause of the tail design.

Thanks Dave, just wondering who they shipped them to when I needed them for a test. I will beat Brad up in Denver.

Cham 107's on the feet of Barkered (overall champion) and Ducruz (3rd overall) for 1st and 2nd place at the FWT finals in Verbier. Wish I could show these videos to everyone comparing these things to BBR's!

Not quite, Cham 107 top sheets. Both of them are skiing on old LPs with new graphics.

Yeah, saw those bases and nearly flat tip rocker on Ducroz's skis at the top of his run . . .

Yeah, that ain't happening on the Cham...skied them for about 5 runs a few months ago, hated them. Way too much sidecut for my preferences. XXL on the other hand was one of my favorite skis ever...especially the rockered version Large change to the cham, just a different style of skiing, not for me.
