Fat-ypus D'riddum- any feedback?

have never skied them myself but my good friend is a rep for them and owns a pair. Cant tell you much about how they ski but will tell you most fat-ypus skis are very soft in flex, but are bomb proof when it comes to construction! (strongest bases i have seen in almost any ski) Also, in particular the d'riddum is a 5 point ski therefore the turn radius is incredibly low. To put into perspective, the G-butter (fat-yups standard park ski) has a turn radius of about 22m and the d'riddum is closer to 15m! I also plan on picking up a pair of d'riddums this winter!

Awesome ski, I'm in love with the 5 point design. Would certainly recommend. I rode the dlirrium as a park ski last year, which was essentially a skinnier version of the same ski. Fatypus skis are the best

Thanks! I'm seriously debating on these skis for a Japan trip, they seem like they will be good for the powder and the rest of the band

Always loved the graphics and I've heard good things about them, I'd say go for it!

They are coming tomorrow! I'll make sure to give a detailed review for everyone else.

never been on em myself but ive heard they are almost identical to the JJ

Did you like them?

And anyone else ride them this season?

I like them, I got them for a deal- but it ended up being the athlete stiffness model. I haven't had an opportunity to put it through some deep powder yet, (got unlucky in japan) but as a cruiser they do the job.
Overall- I like them 8/10, they aren't butter machines like other skis, or as light. But for the right price, they are worth it.

so how stable and maneuverable are they?
what did you like about them?

they're so hard to find reviews of

They are very stable, but they certainly are not meant to carve- but get the job done. I had some issues when I really got on edge they would wash out on the hard pack groomers (probably more of my fault anyways). But when they get into some soft snow they are a dream. The pro stiffness sets are not butter machines, but the normal ones I could imagine they are a bit more playful.

I really like how they can charge on the steeps and cliffs, and they certainly float. They are super durable as well- probably more so than the bigger companies. I know they use similar base tech as ON3P does- and ON3P's are durable af.

But tbh I got a great deal on a set and went for it- so I'm going to take what I can get when it comes to a pow ski. If you can get a good deal on them, I would do it.

I hope that's helpful!
