![]() ![]() I think it will be a match between these DW104 and the Enforcer 104 free for a place in my quiver. Thank you for the comparison with the Rustler 9 (I am glad to see that I am not the only here liking it^^). But for most days in MT, this ski is the one I'll be grabbing. If I knew I was going to be in the bumps all day, I'd grab the Rustlers. I think these will be the perfect DD for me. They don't weigh much more than my Worth (Praxis) 98s and definitely ski better. Pretty sure these would be a decent touring ski too. ![]() Everyone knows telemark is Norwegian for "wait for me". These don't offer the confidence at Mach 3 the Wren's do, although that's not a problem for me. I have Wren 108s although they are too much ski for me. They definitely have a speed limit if that matters for you, somewhere around 30mph. So they required more focus, but certainly work. Similar in the bumps, where obviously the Rustler is just easier to pivot on. Cannot slash them easily like the BG / Steeple iterations in my quiver. In the trees, I felt I had to stay on top of them to turn or pivot quickly. I'd love to get her on a shorter DW104 and see if she thinks the Beech versus Pine is what she's looking for. The Sierras have a low threshold for crud, and is the one complaint I hear from my daughter. Heavier mank or much more leftover snow and I would want to trade up. Not as damp as the Steeples, but everything is a trade-off. A little bucking but much better than the Rustler. Exactly what I was hoping for.īust through 3" of leftovers pretty well. I did detune the tip and tail after the first day which got rid of some hookiness and allowed for better slashing.ģ" freshies were a blast and is probably the sweet spot. Real confidence on ice on them, unlike say the Steeples which don't bite well. Great for those days you know are going to get scraped off at some point. And although I'm tele, plenty of alpine turns get thrown in. Flippo may find it relevant as I also ski a Rustler 9. My first Moment ski although my daughter has been a Sierra fan for a few years. Might as well throw in my DW104 (179) review as well after a week in Big Sky. ![]()
