That sounds like a pretty good idea^^^
although quite a bit less taper in tip/tail than the GPO.Aggressive in my own mind

Anyone else have experience with the RX 116? They aren't bad skis, but I prefer BGs. RX felt a lot lighter than the BGs, they're fun in the air and whipping around. I could not find their sidecut radius for the life of me though. I was not able to set edges on firm snow, not that anyone should really care about a powder ski's carving performance.
Am I just doing something wrong or what?

Anyone ever build up a -1 protest with HH core? Looking for a longer black ops 118-like not too directional chargy ski and the protest profile is fairly similar. Crazy or brilliant?

Run short or ski short?
Straight pull on a 165 ought to be about 163.5.

How bad do I need a pair of custom Protests? How often will I reach for them instead of my Billy Goats? If I get them should I modify the flex one way or the other? How much shorter do they ski than the length would suggest? How many questions can I come up with to stop myself from buying another pair of skis?

I'll throw this out there. I have 192 #4 Protests and if I could do it over I'd go back to 187s. Mine are those red transparent over olive ash veneer beasts I've posted up before.
If anyone starts thinking about order a 192 in a #4 flex, I'll make you an offer you can't refuse!

Maybe a phone call and an offer for a "most difficult" build would get it done.

Haaa, whose the bad influence!? Every convo i think of a new ski "i" want. So confused, isnt it the ullr thats the fatter gpo like ski and the bps with the funky camber? I guess for the light fat touring option the crc(or crr or ccr/whatever its called)camber option, if possible, would work in the tighter trees along with the extra width

I’m liking the changes on paper, and I’m definitely ordering an MVP 108. On my older MVP (110mm uf) I really did like the long radius and heavy taper combo in soft 3D snow but had some issues with icy mornings and running length. I think the increased camber length and decreased taper makes sense for 1-3 days after a storm or as a travel ski. It may not be as loose in deeper snow, but anything over 15” and I’m on another ski anyway. Overall this new 108 looks like it has a bigger wheelhouse for conditions and ideal use situations.
The weights went up significantly too, which along with better edge engagement should really help chop/chunder and crud blasting.

Steered a friends wife to a 175 gpo for a 50/50 ski. She's usually on a 170ish ski , 5"5'/5"7' and probably 110/120lbs, technical skier every condition, small airs , now a weekender. She got on straight away with the gpo at -1. Really likes it. Cant remember but pretty sure tectons and for sure a technica zero scout boot. I thought theyd be a good fit but surprised how much she's stoked on them. The 175 and 165 may be the lighter 3 flex?
