so i have decided to buy some 2021 atomic bent chetler 100s (basic i know sorry). the problem is im not sure were to buy them from, as im in canada so buying from evo i end up with a lot of shipping and customs. also dont really want to wait much longer cause i hate the 2022 graphic and price will most likely go up the closer we get to the ski season/run out of 2021 stock. anybody else in this situation or have ideas? i think i might end up buying them off mec as they are 600 cad there and in stock.

Tail far too stiff, makes for good carves on groomers but if u are an idiot like me and got them mounted recommended it makes fun stuff e.g. ollies, wheelies super hard to do. Would only recommend -1.5 and maybe they'll be fun. Havent got round to remounting yet tho

On top of that, the noses are weirdly soft making for a generally odd flex profile which means crud totally rapes you and makes the speed limit pretty low. Havent detuned n am too shit for park so can't help u there, I just know that there are way better skis to take around a mountain.

like -5 or something stupid like that please don't talk to me about it i cringe everytime I think abt how I let shop techs talk me into mounting them that far back

And before u say that thats my main problem (which it sorta kinda is) I know a dude who's got em mounted much more appropriately (-2) who still says their pretty lame.

but hey if u really want em get em, at least the graphics r cool

thats interesting cause all the reviews and a dude i know all raved about how poppy and how they like the stiffer tail thing. different skiing style i guess or just lying 😂

live and learn i guess maybe ill hate them or love them

good to here another opinion tho

My only complaint about my 100's is there is definitely a speed limit, but that isn't surpsing considering how light they are. At recommended they are pretty one dimensional, but become a lot more playful bumping them up a few cm. For playful all mtn I would recommend +3 or +4, for park I would say +5 or +6.
