The legend goes that the WIFI went out in space, so this brave man has been on a mission the past few years to reset the giant router.

My first thought is it looks just like St. Mary's cathedral in SF and if that is it that's pretty cool. It's a weird one.

The graphics look amazing. I need zero new skis and can't imagine I won't convince myself otherwise!

Is it just me or have the taper lines been adjusted on the Wildcat the new model looks just a bit less dramatic than the old more in line with the 101 & 108 than it was in the past

Great release today…site looks great, skis are once again beautiful. Will be ordering another pair of C98’s. Assuming it will ski as awesome as my previous pair.

*Pondering…what Moment model would make for an EC tight tree ski? Wildcat 101?

I ski the Wildcat 108 Tours around the trees here in VT. It's damn light and snappy ski for its size.

[kid-kapow]

Your ability to merge swagger and information into the written descriptions of the skis is second to none imho, job well done!

As for the lineup - very nicely done yet again. Sweet graphics + true and tested shapes = winning!

how does changing the main wood affect weight and ride feel?

[Kevo]

Sierras look awesome this year. I think my GF is going to pull the trigger.

Good eye but I just put the Wildcat graphic on the wrong template.

Its now fixed.

Wildcat is unchanged for 22/23.

My fav Wildcat topsheet was the original man on the moon one

[hossman]

Deathwish a bit more charge than wildcat or vice versa. coming of an OG katana and looking for a bit more new-school/free ride, but still ski fast? (CO resort+bc playground).

thoughts?

[doebedoe]

Deathwish is a hair softer than the Wildcat in general, but the difference is less noticeable between the DW104 and the WC101/108 (DW104 hair stiffer than its 112 brother.) Both can hold their own at speed, but i'd give the nod to the Wildcat if chargyness is what you're after. More taper in the WC makes it a little better in loose snow or deep chop. Not huge, but a bit.

If engaging groomer skiing matters, DW is a bit more fun. DW104, WC108 both make good dailies in CO. Maybe a 101 if you have a pow ski you like.

I wondered if something like that was going on thx for the clarification

That's the 2nd year.

The first year the Saturn V was taking off from earth.

[hossman]

Thanks… my go to pow is still the kusula, just feels right, but need something for the low snow days that I just grab and go (or leave in truck)… skiing happens. Thinking the WC108, but hear so much about the DW, and now with the 104 it got harder to pick.

Deathwish disciple here, on my fourth pair, my go to ski in powder, soft snow or anytime I am skiing anything other than strictly groomers. Demoed the Wildcat 101 early last season for several days and I loved in on groomers / hard snow. I also have the Meridian (107) that I typically use in the conditions I found the Wildcat 104 to excel in. I wish I had the Wildcat 101, IMO it makes the prefect quiver with the D.W. I bought the Meridian's in late 2000 before Moment offered the WIldcat in 101. The difference between the Meridian and Wildcat under the conditions I mentioned does not justify buying the Wildcat.

This is confusing because there is no Wildcat 104. There is a Deathwish 104, and a Wildcat 101 and 108.

I'm guessing he meant the 101

Sorry, yea Wildcat 101

Seriously. I want that Sierra in a 190. Half tempted to buy the 179 to dork around with the kids and do stupid shit in the park.

I'm seriously thinking about a Sierra Tour or Bella Tour in 179 as a fast and light setup that Bella Tour graphic is 🔥🔥🔥

[possum]

No plans at this time.

Was hoping this would be the year

:kicksdirt

Guess I’ll add a narrower ski this year to the quiver instead

dw104 makes a pretty great low tide DD, quickly took over that position in my quiver once I got on em.

[K1mJ0ngTr1ll]

The 104s seem to fit right in. Can't help but think I need a wildcat back in the quiver. Kinda want an OG topsheet release for it though.

[BC.]

Just to confirm…All Moments come with factory bevels of 1/1….?

I've only skied the DWT and I think the added weight of the DW would help with chargeyness but I did not think the DWT was chargey at all. On the other hand, the WC seems to be one of the OG playful chargers. Going off your description, I'd go WC. It's also pretty versatile for its width so I wouldn't be worried about it being wider
