Down Skis 2017-18 Pre-Season Sale - U.S. Group Buy?

[geo039]

Any reviews out there? Any comparisons to other more widely skied skis?

What is the "feel" of the ski? Rocker picts help, but I think these days the skis feel plays as much a part of whether a particular ski works for people or not.

I will let the peeps here comment but you can find more stuff on eurosite like skipass, freekskiers, etc

Ask Swerve. That dude can rip.

I sent a PM sent to the three new buyers.

The order will go in tomorrow! So, for those that are in, I will send an order review tomorrow before I actually place the order.

Cheers.

Probably ordering SD 95 I wanted the 105's but they are to big for me. I do like my CD 110's they a great travel ski with Kingpins, easy to ski in all types of snow. I can't wait to ski a metal charger thanks again Dschane
I will pm you in the morning

[tuco]

Count me in for CD114L as well!
I, like Mr. Buster Highman, also don't do the paypal.

Im in for a pair. Would prefer SD105 187 but will go with CD114L if not

I'll commit to both if that 105 can be built

[swerve]

Ok, this is a last minute inquiry as count me intrigued.

Looking for something ala a Moment Governor or a Bibby with a flatter, less rockered tail. Would the CD114 be something like this?

It's been a while since I've been on the Bibby or Governor but the CD114 has more stability than the Bibby and Gov but is also longer than the moments. The CD114 will take a more forward stance than the Bibby, similar to the Gov. Less pintail than the Gov so they will arc nice turns on groomers and also have more life/pop than either of the moments. Also as was stated earlier the fit/finish on the skis is one of the best. It's a similar ski to the billygoat if you've tried those. I've only skied the CD114 with dynafits and the other skis were alpine just fyi. Let me know if you have any other questions.

I'm curious how a ski with 7mm of tip-to-tail taper (CD114) skis similarly to a ski 16mm of tip-to-tail taper (BG)? I'm also intrigued by the CD114L but I've hated every ski I've tried that had less than 10mm of taper - tail hooks up way too hard.

[tuco]

^^17mm in a 189 BG

Maybe consider the ratio to the waist rather than raw numbers? (One that comes to mind is is the Renegade)

I can't wait. If I didn't need to buy AT boots and bindings, I would have scored the Carbon 114 as well!
Still kicking myself in the ass for missing previous buys(wish I had a V in the quiver)!
I know my brother and I will love them too!
Thank you geo, SiSt and dshcane(and anyone else I forgot too)!
You guys are the shit!

Word!! Thanks again mags!

An SD105 in a 188-192cm would be well received around here. Not sure if you've seen how many folks are looking for replacements for Legend Pro around. I know I would be all over one and I'm sure a number of mags would be, too.

Pre-season sale extended through the weekend . . .

Truth. Other offerings look great but overlap current quiver.
