From what I know, they are both the same ski. One might be a little stiffer or softer then another but not by much. I've rode with some of the salomon dudes who rode a dumont on one foot, and a suspect on another.

their the same skis, the only difference is that the edges on the dumonts are better

my understanding thus far is that dumonts happen to have twice as much edge armour, i dont know how edge armour works, but it has more of it.

i think its some kind of string that attaches the edges on both side of the skis.
