Revolt 90 or Revolt 86

I came across a steal on the Scorpion design 86 and the eyeball design 90.

I bought both and I am trying to decide which one to go with. These will see 30+ days of park this season. They will also see some all mountain as well, but I got 104s for all mountain rippers.

Would y'all lean either way? The 86 are $400 msrp and 90 are $600 msrp.

Side note:

I am going to sell the brand new pair I do not use for a good price.

Depending on how much 4mm makes to you, get the cheaper one and go all out on good binding.

If you didn't already have the 104 I would say 90. But you have the 104 so I would say 86

84 is for half pipe, 86 is the one that Birk Ruud uses.




PS. Why is there a picture of Alex Hackel on the product page? :D

I looked into these when I also found a great deal on some 86s but when I bought them the shop messed up and didn’t actually have the skis… anyways, from what I read it looked like the 86 is a little more of a directional/all mountain slimmed down revolt 95 (but still a park ski obviously if birk ruud rides them) while the 90 is a true symmetrical park twin
