Sorry. I’ve missed a couple of weeks of this thread. Did we ever get a weight on the BG 108 184 with the full tour thin base config?

I found the C&D pretty much a perfect snow ski. On anything chopped, or variable, I didn't like the feel much. Billygoat is much more IDGAF. When conditions are perfect (cat skiing and not hit by sun for instance), the C&Ds are absolutely magical. In anything else, the B&Gs are more confidence inspiring for me. I'm a fatty tho.

ON3P SKIS Discussion
I think the C&D (newer) does pretty good in the resort on a pow day, even when it gets chopped up in the afternoon. If anything maybe the core difference between that and the BG make a bigger difference for chop performance than shape. BG would be better day after a storm for sure

I would imagine the C&D would do better in continental snow late on a storm day than it does in maritime chop, where the Goat has no peer.

Would add that the BG is no slouch in fresh. Haven’t skied a CD but have many days of 12”+ new on BGs and have never wished I had a better ski for it. I was on older BGs though.

Are you guys overlooking the SG’s? They give zero fucks if it’s untracked or chop

I believe the stiff 193s I ordered are SGs or at least similar. Haven't skied them yet because they haven't been made yet so can't comment.

Do we know the price point on the stock BG Tours? I want to know how much my wallet is going to hate me.

TahoeJ-yes, 116 waist skis are generally good in pow. My point was the BGs are good enough in pow that if you had to pick between CDs and BGs, I'd rather give up a tiny amount of pure untracked performance for everything else they do well.
But, if you can have an assload of awesome skis, discussing the differences is cool too.

Re SG - it would be interesting to see how a 184 SG (if Iggy ever decides to bring it to market after he mused on it earlier in this thread) would bridge the gap between a 184 BG and 184 C&D. The slightly wider SG shape (compared to a BG) with less tail splay and stiffer recommended flex pattern should be really interesting in the 184 shape too. You know, for all of us short, light people who do not have the cahones to ride skis in big boy lenghts Not that a 184 SG is really needed - BGs and C&Ds is a truly awesome powder offering - but it would be interesting for sure.

I wonder if new or OG c and d tour is better. I skied new Bg and prefer my old one so I sold it. Maybe I don’t like assym. Anybody ski variations of c and d and care to comment? Also comments to applicable UT blower only
Sent from my iPhone using TGR ForumsI need to go to Utah.
Utah?
Yeah, Utah. It's wedged in between Wyoming and Nevada. You've seen pictures of it, right?
So after 15 years we finally made it to Utah.....
Thanks BCSAR and POWMOW Ski Patrol for rescues

The Woods look awesome. Can't wait to see the BG tour/tour 108 topsheets. Still debating whether I should opt for tour or the new 50/50 option for my next pair. Waiting for official weights before I make up my mind. Really don't need another pair of skis at this point, but you know... ON3P.

I've had 2 versions of C&D. 193 OG(heavy af, nontour) and I own the previous version to the current. OG was a true one trick pony. Little more off balance than I like(too wide at the tip compared to tail. Front taper section too long. Pintail, tail rocker and twintip left no rear support). They were great in untracked or where skis could be let to follow the fall line. Skied the Pipeline at the Bird w/ them and that was it. Sold them the following fall to a fellow local mag who I believe still rocks them.
Do not have enough time on my '17s to actually comment definitively, but I recall feeling nothing but comfortable on them.
