sounds like comparing two really different skis
the dumont is pretty much a 100% park ski with an emphasis on jumps and pipe
the watchlifes from what I have heard are pretty much a park oriented all mountain twin so they will be good everywhere
personally I think the watchlifes are a cooler ski but both are pretty sick.

^Yeah but the Dumont's are wide aswell.
I'm 5'10 and ski 90 percent park and would mount them at true center. I live on the east so powder isn't a factor.

I'd say watchlifes, and I'm not very biased

yeah im on the east coast as well. but i hear so much great things about them (dumonts) but im sketchy about the new brand of skis. but you hear simply amazing things about watchlifes. nothing negative.

i rode both skis this season for most of the season.......both mounted true center.......they both kill it in the park and everywhere else on the mountain (east coast) watchlifes have better edges and a better flex in my opinion.....they are also lighter than the dumonts...both skis spin good but i like the watchlifes in the air better for sure
