Nice! I cant wait for mine!
Ski ball, looking good. What size did you go with? How are the stiffer tips and tails?

Posted this in ON3P thread too, but figured I'd ask here too. I'm trying to find a one ski quiver for the next few years while I'm a grad student, and want something to use for multiple trips out west that will still be fun for the icy days on the east coast. Anyone have any input of the hardpack performance of the Deathwish? And how that might compare to a Kartel 108 or Wren 108? Looking to buy from ON3P or Moment, and have never owned or skied a Moment so not sure how it may compare to ON3P. Appreciate any help.

I ski my Moment Belafontes (now redesigned as the Commander 108) in everything from hardpack to about a foot of fresh and never been let down. Great spring ski too. However, not the best for truly massive dump days.

190. They are last years model, just finally mounted up. Don't have a lot to compare with, but I prefer stiffer skis. T&T are fairly solid, not a ton of give to them. Ran em on steeper skied off stuff, chop, moguls, and deep pow. Handled everything well. I am a happy boy.

I love the Deathwish in all kinds of western conditions. Triple camber bites likes crazy on hard groomers and it teaches you pretty quickly that they don't require must effort to make them snap around. Hard icy boilerplate might be another thing but at 112 underfoot it skis powder great and groomers are a breeze.

I own both. They are an excellent two ski BC-only quiver.
The Exit Worlds ski just like a Bibby, which I love dearly, only a much lighter. Had them on a five day hut trip in the Tetons. Killed it.
The Underworld is for those days when the snow isn't great. I'm usually of the TGR crowd and ski the longest ski. Not the case with the UW; went with the 181. For long days or approaches with spicy conditions or variable snow; they are great. You can't really open them for big, wide open stuff, but doesn't matter. They are easy to ski and grip well.
Sadly, I've skied neither out here in the PNW - no touring partners to get out with.
This is my set-up. The narrower tips and notched tails make for any use with the BD skins.
Whatcha wanna know?
I always wanted to ski those old Moment chargey, directional skis. I'll put these Commanders on the list to try. Anxious to hear how you get on with them.

If I recall correctly, Carston Oliver not the tallest guy, and/or wanted something maneuverable. Despite not being longer, it has a beefy build with extra fiberglass and carbon so it should still feel like a strong ski. The interesting thing is the stated weight at 1890 grams per ski (unless its an error) is much less than the Meridian 117 at 2200 grams which is presumably a very similar design and build.
