22/23 gear rumors

I love freepiste!

Finally, I have a named category for my passion. Praise be! Where is the Mecca of Freepiste so I can start training?

[Lord Thomas]

Maybe it’s the touring fulltilt we have been waiting for.

I flexed the red Armada Locator in store the other day, pretty stiff.

Would like to hear more about the Armada Locator. Anyone got specs yet, hopefully it's not just a shitty rebadged backland?

Light ski with longish radius, looking good! 🙂

[iriponsnow]

I want to be named as the inventor of the this term! Like all allmountain skis and all freeride skis in the sub 100 class are now officially tgr approved freepiste skis!!!

Are you Hank from Steamboat in the land of Aspens?

These look low volume in the toebox.

As someone who skis 150+ days a year in plug boots, I’m very interested. The freedom however had a horrible fit, tight in the forefoot and loose as hell in the heel ankle, so my interest is somewhat muted.

A friend once told me "Friends who count, don't". Always thought he was talking about drinking. Epic.

Found this on NS: https://www.newschoolers.com/ski-gea...35/Locator-112

Specs:

Sizes: 166, 173, 180, 187
Dimensions: 136 - 112 - 128 @ 180
Radius: 24 @ 180
Weight: 1500g @ 180


Someone else would have to compare it to the Backland.

It’s easy. I ski everyday the lifts spin and some days after. Never have actually counted but since I know the lifts spin that many days I assume I get 150+

Locator112: 24m radius, low camber, 1500g?? Hoochie mama.

[Tailwind]

New DPS lotus next Monday… sounds like it will ship this year.

i think I read “Lotus 118” elsewhere.

Yeah, that looks pretty nice. The graphic are slightly nauseating for some reason, but I'm sure others won't care, and I don't really either. Atomic light construction, yes please!

anything new in full rockered ski world?

I love my 4frnt hojis, and black crow damian, looking for more like that (light full rocker, 20+ M turn shape, 95-115 mm range, 180+ lenght)

[Benneke10]

All I can see is that we still get the V Werks Katana... would love to see a new full rocker ski though

[Tailwind]

WNDR seems interesting in this category… but not new.

Also not new, but as a fan boy of all the hoji skis. I love the raven for a do it all touring ski.

Not new, but the Icelantic SABA Pro 107 and 117 are both full rocker

[NWFlow]

Will the locators have a more progressive mount point? Still seems to be too few (for my taste) light skis with a more generally forward mount.

Volkl Blaze 106 isn’t full rocker, but really close to it and generally skis like it.
