I shared this via email to someone, and thought it would be relevant to you and ARL67 as well.
The punchline on the AM skis, overall, was a mix between a good number of folks keen on the Heritage Lab concept, but wanting a ski that was less intimidating. That dovetailed with my own desire to have a touring-compatible ski in these shapes, that well... didn't ski like a touring ski.
As such, I went with a single layer of metal to add torsion and life, a lighter core, and less dense fiberglass. The comp skis will be much stiffer and heavier: Alpine skis with high din bindings for strong skiers. The AM skis would be either a travel/touring ski for a strong skier or an alpine ski for a lighter finesse skier.
Specific to the R87 AM50/50, I am super fired up to mount my pair with race-style tech bindings. I usually quite touring in the spring outside of pow days because I never have found a good ski for the snow... and so specific to the 182cm R87 AM50/50, that is EXACTLY what I want to ski on. I will also probably throw Tectons on the R120 and R99 AM50/50 for trips with mixed bag snow expectations.

Here is the thread in question that Arlid mentioned on the 113 concept ski, if anyone is curious:

Just completed my order for the FL113's after trading emails with Marshal. This ski sounds bananas awesome. Thanks very much Marshal (and Arild), the stoke is real here in Seattle.

Sweet, looks perfect for a daily driver here. Kinda what I wished the monster 98 had for tips and tails.

FL113 - 187.
I skied the K2 MB 108's at 186 all year and thought they were great. Length was one of the questions I had for Marshal on the FL113s. Great advice. Thanks again.

Man I really want some R99's but really dont need a pair of skis in this category.
a positive attitude will not solve all of your problems, but it may annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Awesome! I've got 194s,along with carbon 187s and FR132s on order, thinking really hard about getting fall line 187s aswell, or be more sensible and order R87s. The latter would put the icing on the cake. All the skis i need from one brand.

From our cult leader!
Hello from Heritage Labs!
It's hot outside and I had my earliest powder dream last week... so here is a quick update on how we are progressing. Many thanks to everyone who has hopped on and pulled the trigger. It is so gratifying that you want to be a part of this crazy little dream.
With this email, I have locked quantities and all my deposits go to the manufacturers in the coming weeks. This means however many skis are listed on the Heritage Labs website are what I will have to sell this coming season... and that's it for this run! Once they are gone, they are gone till next year. Additionally, I expect to increase prices from the pre-order super deal on September 1st.
As a quick reminder, Heritage Labs has the following shapes:
132mm reverse / reverse shape, offered in your choice of Carbon or Freeride layups.
113mm directional charger, offered in your choice of Carbon or Freeride layups.
120mm soft snow charger, offered in AM or Comp flexes
99mm mixed snow crusher, offered in AM or Comp flexes
87mm free piste slayer, offered in AM or Comp flexes
Please let me know if you are interested and have any questions.
All the best,
Marshal

I'm on the 182 R87 train as well!
The R120 has caught my eye, but I have a cherry 191 Katana that I've yet to ski that seems pretty similar?

Good question!
the c113 will be in the same vein, for sure, as the Lhasa.
where the flex/stiffness of the fl113 is much more in the RC112, Thirteen, comp ski vein.
cheers man!

Although the 194 FL113s are my dream skis, I'm actually a lot more curious as to how the pure carbon 187 C113s will behave.
Having never skied Lhasas or OG 120s, from all that's been said over the years on here, I believe I'm in for a treat,though I believe the 113 shape will be more speed friendly than both, at least in variable.

For the 87's on EC, would you vote FR or 50/50 for someone that's been away from skiing for a few years but used to daily drive explosivs?
