PSA: Liberty skis $199 + free ship at Sierra
Liberty skis are on clearance at Sierra for $199 + free shipping. The V-series are smooth, stable, and very easy to use frontside carvers. The evolv90 is a great carver that adds some versatility for low tide off piste. These have been getting some good reviews and I have enjoyed my V92 and evolv100 FWIW.

Not just Liberty. They have Black Crows and Kastles for $199 and all of their DPS are massively reduced. Deal would be much better with a damn 25% off coupon, but alas, it appears those days are over.

IN for some Black Crows Daemon Birdies and Kastle FX95's for me. Good deals, almost bought more skis than I need, especially since I have 3 sets of alpine and one set of dynafits looking for a home.

Some pretty solid deals, especially if you are in shorter length skis. Not much available for bigger guys.
Also decent deal on Scarpa Freedom boots. Both 120 and 130 for $199.

they've got a small selection of 189's but I was talked out of the factions by a friend who has done a ton of testing, ended up on the 189 FX95's

Correct, non-HP has no metal. Not a noodle, but not nearly as torsionally stiff or driveable.
The Dynafit touring ski deals are insane, especially for the uphill crowd or mellow touring.

ehhh i guess for $200 they're good. i was on their speed84 for a little bit and i HATED them. it's heavier than other UL skis and it skied worse than they did as well - felt like i was constantly going over the handlebars, tip dive, poor-ish float, and just "fine" edge performance.
i'm on bd cirque 84's now which i like more in every possible way. they're like 300g lighter AND they ski better.

Fuck, fuck, fuck. I cannot buy more skis.
Liberty V series are the shit for groomer zooming.

I hear that but didn't listen... so a V76 is on its way to me.
Funny thing is that I wouldn't have ever gotten a 76mm ski unless on clearance, but it's probably what I should be skiing on most days in Maine. This season especially... Low tide with a hard bottom.
edit to add: I agree that Liberty is making some very good skis right now. Seems they're in a bit of no mans land however... not as recognized as the big brands but not as cool as the small brands.Last edited by singlecross; 01-12-2021 at 05:38 PM.

Hmmmm, my narrowest ski right now is a Head Kore 99. Really torn between the DPS Foundation Cassiars in 87/94 vs the Liberty V's for low tide...

Looking at the kastle fx 95. I think I'd be better suited in the hp version at 220lbs. Would the non hp still be a good ski for a big guy?

Thanks for the PSA! I’m considering the liberty v92 or v82 179, need a carving ski for low snow days in Tahoe. Currently have a 4frnt msp 99 and a blizzard rustler 10 as my narrowest skis. the v82 is probably the choice to diversify, but v92 seems like a strong carver with a bit more versatility too. Thoughts?

The V92 carves well and will offer a little more versatility than the V82 but it is still primarily a frontside/on-piste type of ski. If your thinking mostly groomer carving, I'd go V82. If you want more all-mountain with the ability to still carve groomers well, I'd go Evolv90. The Evolv series are Liberty's best skis IMHO.

Pulled the trigger on some Evolv90s. Now to track down some bindings...anyone got a lead on cheap binders with narrow brakes? Corbett's sale section is pretty picked overat the moment
Think everything I've got on-hand is wider than I'd want to throw on there.
