Mosdef the Scratch BC, way better ski than the dynastar mainly because of a more sturdy construction

BC's if you charge it hard, stiffer THC construction, burly ass edges, rubber injected tips and tails, massive twin, and Editors pick buy freeskier mag.

the ski rips it up like a banshee in a bucket, what more do you want?

big troubles for shure springbale technology same flex pattern as the tms but stiffer rubber dampening throughout the entire ski handle anything with ease minus rails! if these skis could handle rails they would be my only ski!

with gas prices so expensive and mexicans so cheap i think i am going to start riding a mexican to work!

scratch bc's, and you'll most likely pay 600 everywhere, unless you got hookups?

pretty sure the big troubles arent foam core, only salomons are i think, everyone else is wood core. Check your facts newb.

Exactly, that is why I said, "unless" This means, if want to ski foam, buy the Scratch.
Given that there are only two options, this would leave only the big trouble, which is made of wood, and metal.
Read the post, then reply.

At your weight I'd recommend the Big Trouble.

actually, quite on the contrary, the THC core (which is used in both the FS and BC) is a "Triple Hybrid Core", which for all you stoners out there translates to about 50% wood for snappyness, 30% microcell for burlyness, and 20% isocore to lighten up the package.

Whats that mean? it means a ski thats snappy, burly, and light and can lickin and keep on tickin.


mr. t smells like my cats poop.

No, scratches are foam, just like all the other rossis. From the B1 to the squad, Foam, foam, foam. If you drill a pair, you can see it is all foam.
More foam than a rabid dog.

^As funny as that was he's still right. The THC is not all foam and it performs a hell of a lot better than "other" foam core skis. Holds up better too. If you want a wood core, just get sprayers. Yay, an option for everybody. Go Rossi.

Get BCs.

But I also think women who are this way (and it is almost all of you) should be honest and admit that they are basically whores, and stop saying bad things about the so-called "actual whores" who are just trying to earn an honest living."

Agreed, BC's kill the big troubles in just about every category. The core rossi uses just makes the ride alot more damp and absorbent feeling, its pretty rugged and you wouldn't really know there was foam in it from a durability standpoint.
