Those bacons are the most fun ski I’ve ever owned, Ive got red attaks they look dope but I kinda wish I had a heavier binding, I feel more weight under a boot makes tips feel even lighter, which would make those feel like they don’t have tips

2021 Line chronic 178; will have 22 designs outlaw x bindings
2020 Line SFB 176; mounted w/ marker griffon demo bindings
Capn crunch pro; 2017 sick day 95 178 mounted w/ 22 designs outlaw x
Profahoben_212Honestly if I can find the other one you can just have them for shipping or whatever. They are beat to shit but they still work I spose.
I think the other ones at the homies house. I can shoot him a text if you want
That would be sick bro, I was just looking for a pair of street skis for this year so I don't really care about condition. I just love how weird surface's 3 stage rocker looks, I've always wanted a pair

Yeah they are super fun. The short turning radius and flex really does it for me. I’ve never ridden anything different on the ski but my demo bindings ride pretty well. I like that i can change the “mount point” with demos too

They're perfect for a street ski. Used them as a rail ski for 2 seasons. Also super fun for deep days when you don't need edges!

deathvalley69Buying the exact same setup in 2 different lengths is a power move
Got them all on deals and just got the 190cm versions for low coverage days where I don’t want to hit rocks on the Wildcats. Paid full retail for the Wildcats vs 1/2 that for the CT 3.0 so I won’t feel as bad if they get damaged. The 190cm CT 3.0 are stiffer and about 100grams heavier than the Wildcats so they should haul.

Don’t you ride at blue? Very jealous of your quiver
9tryDon’t you ride at blue? Very jealous of your quiver
Yes, at Blue and Moonstone when skiing locally and then go out west to ski somewhere every year. I’m the one skiing wide skis through after crud very fast at Blue in the afternoons so I’m easy to spot. Lol
Holler if you see me! What skis are you running so I can look out for you. If you’re close to my boot size, I usually bring a bunch of my skis to the hill and you’re more than welcome to try out anything!
Your suggestion makes no sense tbh given the size of the tape. Also, epoxy or screw glue technically seals the hole so no need for such lazy tape. If you’re mounting holes, tape like that is a huge pain in the ass because you actually want to see and feel exactly we here the hole is. So makes no sense unless it’s uniform across the ski
edited to say I didn’t mean to come across so abrasive. Just makes more work than it saves ha
mystery3Covering epoxied in plugs for the old holes?

My thinking was that the tape was being used either to keep uncured epoxy from running or to smooth out the excess to make it easier to knife or sand off later when cured.
Honestly so stoked to add these ugly boys to the quiver: RMU Wisco. Gonna get rid of some others in the quiver but also got some Fauna Omnis on the horizon… 😎
BradFiAusNzCoCaPeople are posting photos so I wanted to jump in on the fun. I’ve got attacks for the deviations but I need buy bindings for the Wreckreate 102s. I’m thinking pivots or maybe sths. Or maybe I’ll fall back to trusty attacks.
Two photos because my quiver is not together atm.

2018 Rossignol black ops (cast)
I daily the 2014 line EP and ski the black ops occasionally. If anyone has some suggestions for an all mountain in the 105-115 range I'm all ears. Keeping my eyes open for some reckoners and maybe Jeffery 108's. I really love a ski that can butter, carve, and semi-charge
Added the Prodigy 3.0 so took another pic. Can’t. Stop. Buying. Skis……haha

Hell no nothing alike.
the blend and sfb are noodles, have close to center mounts, -2 and -3, the vision has better suspension, slightly stuffer -6 mount, you can drive the shovels, it’s not a charger but it’s more stable than those, it’s just real light and it’s profile makes it easy to ski. https://blisterreview.com/winter-buyers-guide
skidemon22How stiff is the Vision? I like the numbers, but I’m worried it’ll be too soft for everyday cruising… like the blend of SFB…
